[Diy_efi] Re: Plumbing - EFI conversion

[Dogleg Racing]

Thanks, I have made up a surge tank and I have 3/8" and 5/16" feed and 
return lines.  I have modified the tank outlet with low pressure in-tank 
pump and 1/2" outlet (to the surge tank) and 5/16" return.

The standard line is plastic and goes through the cabin and I plan to 
re-route the efi lines outside of the cabin.  I'll probably use P clamps.

Cheers all

from Oz - Beautiful one day, perfect the next!
