All I gotta do now is put the hose clamps on the oil return hose, put on the spark plug wire covers, top off trans, and I think thats it. Off to slowhawk then to put down some ponies

Yeah i boyght -6 an braided line and fittings for the lines. I cut the stock metal lines just before they go away from the framerail up the trans. Then used these steel compression fittings from a company called swadgelock thatare good to 250 psi, my dad uses them on his refrigeration stuff in his company. You can get them in any size pretty much. And i used one on the 3/8 feed on the rail to go to braided and blocked the 5/16 return.

was there a reason you installed it before the fuel rail? would after the rail make it simpler?

I did it this way because I went down to CT to look a benlugchev's truck and this is how his is set up.

And out of curiosity what do you do to the stock regulator when you have the aftermarket one when you still use the return?
