Default Box o goodies arrived for fuel system

Got my order from Summit today. Ordered one wrong fitting so it's going back for an exchange, and I also ordered two sets of AN line wrenches today also, should be here next week. I'll update this thread with progress as I put my fuel system together.

My fuel setup will be as follows:

Individual lines off each in-tank fuel pump into a Y and -8 main feed (undecided on how to do this yet)

-8 feed line splits into two -6 lines through a Y and enters the rear of each fuel rail
Lines come out the front and join together in the FPR
Return line exits the FPR and returns to the tank via the stock return line

I have all the parts and part numbers necessary for everything except how to get the lines into the fuel tank. I bought all Summit parts when available, and marked down other brands as needed below:

Here's what I got:

20 ft -8 steel braided line 230820
6 ft -6 steel braided line 230606
(3) -8 female hose ends 220890
(1) Fuel filter 10 micron -8 ends 230116
(1) Y adapter -8 in, 2x -6 out MagnaFuel 6286
(7) -6 female hose end 220690
(2) 3/8 male pipe to -6 male 220648
(2) 3/8 male pipe to -6 male 90* 220652
(1) -6 female to hose 90* 220687
(1) -6 female to female 90* Russell 640160
(1) -6 to -6 straight cut o-ring 220166
(2) -6 to -10 straight cut o-ring 220163
(1) -6 male to 5/16 tube adapter Earl's 165065ERL
(1) 5/16 fuel line repair section Napa BK7304930

My fuel rails are Edelbrock PN 3638 and accept 3/8" pipe fittings on all 4 corners
FPR is Edelbrock 1729, boost referenced -10 inlet/outlet, -6 bypass

Anyway, I'll keep this thread updated as I put parts together in case anyone is interested in doing something similar.

Yeah I've used this stuff a few times before on my tranny lines and for the turbo oil drain. I absolutely hate working with it, but it looks good when it's done. I've stabbed my fingers with stray steel fibers before...it hurts like hell!!
