Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) How to plumb p-pump into fuel tank line?

[DLausche]

What is the best and/or easiest way to plumb my p-pump setup into the line from the tank? I've got new 1/2" hose from the new p-pump up to the front, but haven't yet figured out the best approach for the feed line. Do I need to drop the tank to get to the fittings on the top, or should I just tap into the stock hard line on the inside of the frame?



Thanks

The Vulcan setup moves the TP to just infront of the tank, cute sht supply line(3/8in) and uses a short hose to the pump. From there on it is 1/2 in to the filter and from the filter to theVP44. The best part is removing the pump to filter line in which the banjos seem to only have a 1/4 hole.

Don't drop the tank,

Its more practical to take the bed of cause its easier to run the plumbing with the tank in place. To take it of just take the bumper of and the filler neck mounts the rear lights undo with a couple connectors,don't forget the ground strap on the passenger side and 6 bolts. I used an engine hoist attached to the tiedowns. I plumbed 1/2 pipe in the fuel module to feed my Fuel Preporator. I usedthe existing fuel module as a baffle but got rid of the check valve and opened the holes that supply the fuel module. Drawing through anything less than 1/2in. will restrict your fuel flow at high demand situations. The 3/8in fuel lines are even smaller where they attatch to he fuel module less than 5/16in.
