Alright im wanting to up the fuel line size coming out of the fuel tanks to either 1/2 or 5/8 now with two tanks on my OBS is there a upgrade for the tank selector switch so that it can flow more fuel or should i just go to a one tank system wich leaves me with only 16 gallons of fuel??? any suggestions thanks

I clicked on the wrong forum this should really be in the upgrades and aftermarket my bad:shrug:
Joey im running a SD stock replacement pump, jacob has come up with a pretty good idea of plumbing another SD replacment pump in between the filters cause my filter heads have 2 inlets and 2 outlets that just leaves me with the supply from the tanks to the pump problem if i put a single big tank in the rear is that going to be a ton of extra weight in the back that will make it sag real bad with a load on? im in the process of getting a fuel pressure gauge put in so i can see just what its at at WOT.

Does the bronco tank fit in the same spot with no modding, Do you have to use the tank straps from the bronco and what year of bronco tanks work for it?

Robert
well im on my way to having a fuel pressure gauge, im sure that it will keep up with stage 1s but im running hybrids 230ccs. The exhuast is not a big deal cause i have stacks in the truck so not an issue. and iv got the pumps part of the fuel system figured out so im just trying to decide about a tank, im leaning towards the bronco tank i think.

I agree i have never once pulled the spare out from under the truck and its a 265/75/16 and i have 35s on the truck a little clash there. i havent looked at it yet but what is all involved in modding from the stock tank pick up to a 1/2 or 5/8 pick up out of the tank should you keep it a steel line?

Robert
Ya you cant beat that
