Now that things sat overnight, hooked up the lines and fittings. Had to massage the fuel line cover per instructions:

next, I had to disconnect the fuel line:

Install the new hardline setup from DSX and reconnect the fuel line -- note how the factory connector its 'locked' in place:

Connect to the pump and route the hoses:

Tighten all fittings, make sure the hoses are tight -- don't ask ;o)

After verifying, turn the key on but don't start -- this should prime the system and if any leaks show, stop, clean, tighten, and repeat.

The Hotchkis adds some protection!

Now that I know there are no leaks, I'll install the wire harness for the fuel pump. You'll look through every socket you have, but you'll probably be like me, and need 'ignition' wrenches (like 9/32). Heading out to get one -- ah the OLD days when these were needed...

Note;
Turns out 8mm worked fine!

Have to drop the passenger's side splash shield/wheel liner and route the wire harness -- not a big deal!

Then, the DSX FPCM...
