Fuel line limits
What are the rough limits of the stock fuel lines? Looking to go E85 tuned shortly, but worried I won't have the fuel line to push enough fuel (~700rwhp, which is equivalent to roughly 950rwhp on gasoline) Anyone?

Well I have seen 1,000 flywheel HP on pump gas through factory line using ADM dual pump system. I have pumps in my car on E85 but making only slightly over 600 flywheel. Not near as high as I think you are considering.

From what I've seen for 700 WHP on E85 your going to need a fuel system that will handle at least 1000 WHP on regular fuel.

We have been running stock lines on all of our builds dating back to 1999 on 427 twinturbo cars that make upwards of 1000 hp.
You will be fine. FACTORY LINE ON GM F BODY,CORVETTE,CURRENT V8 CARS IS 3/8 Note:We run alot of fuel pressure....if you run very low fuel pressure you will need very large lines. |
