Default Fuel Line set up?

ok, with out making this to complicated. I need some help running my fuel lines. I have a standard 1998 LS1 Set up. I will be using a single line fuel filter like the one below. Do I need a regulator some where or is that the thing that is on my factory fuel rail?

The filter you are using has an internal regulator.

Thumbs up

I bought my fuel line from http://www.tubetechweb.com/67-69camarofuellines.html I bought the dual one for my LT1 setup, but this gives you another option. They do alot of work for Street and Performance, their customer service was very good. Very nice product and it fit like a glove.

Check with an expert but I believe Fuel injected cars use a return fuel line also. Just a heads up

they do, but the late model LS cars usually bypass at the rear off the fuel filter and only have one line going forward to the engine. That's how his car is set up.

Default Fuel & AIR mixed=engine death

When you feed your engine AIR, it should be from the "AIR DOOR"

The AIR should not come from the fuel line.

When air enters the fuel system, the best way to remove it IS to allow the aerated fuel back into the fuel tank to seperate.
