Thread: Fuel Line question

Tweet

I have other questions but I thought I'd better pace myself.

I was told that I don't need a fuel return line but I'm not so sure I agree. I have an Edelbrock Perfomer 600CFM carb, a Holley Blue fuel pump and regulator, as well as a filter and I'm gonna install a shut-off valve (as per Dave's advise on another post that I never would have thought of) and 3/8" lines.

I want to plumb the hard lines before I get my body on so should I run two or is just the supply line required.

Thanks,

Just the supply line with that set up.
There is no provisions to hook up a return line.

Only reason to run a return line is if you plan to go with fuel injection setup at some point in the future...

Okay sounds good,

Thanks,

I would say it is dependant on the type of fuel pressure regulator you have.... I have a carbd 383 Chev and the regulator i chose to use was a return type of the aeromotive brand....

I was looking at the regulator yesterday and it does have three ports. Does this mean I run a return line back to the reg??? I need some pictures or diagrams. Mine is a 383 as well.
