return line

[jerritt]

hey guys im installing the tt340 fuel pump from turbotweak and it says that i need to increase the size of the return line. how would you guys suggest to do this. do i need to get a larger fuel pickup or will i be okay with just increasing the size back to that and do i need to get a larger metal line that goes off the regulator? thanks for the help

On turbo tweaks site he has a list of the parts to do this. I did it on mine and it was like $125 worth of parts. There are cheaper ways, but this one worked well for me as well.

Some people get away without having to do a larger return...If you don't drive the car everyday you could try it with the stock return and check your fuel pressure.

It says you might have to. Put the pump on first,then check the pressure. If you can get it down to 43 lbs,your good. If you can't you'll need to drill the two Saginaw fittings to a larger diameter on the return line. One is located where the return line connects to the regulator. The other one is located where the return line connects to the steel line where the line sticks out of the frame by the steering box.
