I recently finished my fuel setup and have been seeing some posts with people having questions on setting up an FD with the corvette filter. I know I had questions when I was working on my fuel setup, and with the help of this forum I was able to find information scattered in different threads. My disclaimer is that I have not actually finished my car yet so I haven't used the setup yet, but I don't see why it shouldn't work.
I am using the stock fuel tank and use OEM hardline. I am using an in tank Aeromotive 340 stealth that I rewired to 10 gauge wiring. I am not using the charcoal canister either.
My parts list is all from summit and is as follows:
AER-FBM1012 6AN STRAIGHT HOSE END x 7
AER-FBM4032 FITTING REUSABLE ALUMN 90DEG x 1
AER-FCU0610 STARLITE HOSE 6 x 1
EAR-165056ERL ALUM TUBE ADPT -6 MALE AN TO 5 x 4
LNG-47200 ADEL 9 16 PAK OF 10 x 1
RUS-640850 EFI TO 6 AN FITTING x 1
RUS-640860 FUEL RAIL TO -6AN x 1
RUS-640940 FUEL RAIL ADAPTER FITTING x 1
WIX-33737 LINE FUEL x 1
The total comes to about $270 + shipping. I should also say that the OEM fuel rail I am using already had a -6 AN male on it, so I didn't need that connection, but if you do need that it should be just another 640860 I believe.
It shouldn't matter what intank fuel pump you use, but I rewired mine with parts from McMaster. That parts list is:
2 ft of 7304k173
2 ft of 7304k171
1 pack of 69525k17
7807k13 x 1
This was just under $20.
Here is a diagram of how everything will be laid out.
This is what it should look like when you get everything. I had about 8 inches of fuel line leftover, so be careful and don't waste any of it.
installing the fittings is easy, everything should just snap onto the FPR.
I cut the bulges off the end of the fuel tank cover and attached the fittings.
Drilled out the hole to fit the McMaster bulkhead
Bulkhead for 10 gauge wiring
ditched the 16 gauge wiring and , installed the new wires and terminals in the plug that came with the fuel pump
Ready to put back on the fuel tank
Checked area for FPR, used a bolt that is long enough to go through the hole that already exists there to mount it.
installed the feed and return side
Lines made up to lead to the OEM hardline and engine
some mounting points for the fuel line clamps
installed the fittings on the hardline and mounted
If anyone wants to add anything or has any better options to add to this then go ahead.
Added Stance GR+ coilovers. I haven't used the before and they look great and everything, but I already wish I had gotten some Ohlins. But I have heard great things about Stance and I hope they work out great.
Dropped the gas tank and cleaned it as best I could. I plan on putting a fuel cell in the rear before too long anyway.
Did a 929 master cylinder install and reinstalled the ABS in the OEM location for now, but will move it behind passenger seat in the future. Also installed Wilwood clutch master and made a holder for my remote clutch bleeding line from the slave.
interior stripped out for cleaning
