AN Fuel Lines on a 2000 1500
What痴 up guys. New here and got a couple questions. I知 about to tackle my fuel setup for my turbo build. Going to run a Hotwired walbro 450 in the stock bucket with a hydromat and quick connect an6 adapters on the stock hat. Obviously running a return system. I知 Also doing a Aeromotive FPR. My curiosity is how much an6 line should I order to do the whole truck? Have a sniper intake with Holley fuel rails so I値l need lines for the FPR aswell. Just looking for a round about amount so I know what to order to start out with

I have a gauge for that

Depends if you are planning to reuse the stock lines or not, which would be fine in this case. If you do then youd need maybe 4-6 feet at the engine to do the rails and FPR and such. If you want to run all new lines probably 25-30ft depending on what cab configuration you have.

Clean truck Mac! Just me but i'd run as much hardline as i could along the frame from front to back with short pieces of ptfe lined hose to connect to the tank and stuff up front.

Since when is the corvette regulator a returnless setup?

Technically it has to return the fuel from the Filter/Regulator. But most consider it a return-less fuel system for some reason.
It should be called a Non Vac/Boost referenced fuel system.
And good luck with that walbro 450 pump and filter/regulator combo. Your asking for trouble.
Go ahead and get a Vac/Boost Referenced regulator.
The Vette Filter/Regulators dont like that large of a fuel pump. They cant flow that much fuel and will give you some high fuel pressure and ive seen them get so high the injectors cant open.
Especially going turbo, if you used the vette F/R your going to limit your injector HP capability and your fuel pump wont be able to support as much power since the pressure delta will fall instead of pressure rising with boost.
