Documenting a 5.3L LM7 Truck Engine swap for my Jeep project. Can you line components up as follows: Tank - Hose - Primary Filter - Hose - Pump - Hose to Rail? I assume that I can get extra quick connectors for the section between the Pump and the Engine Fuel Rail. As well as Fuel line and fittings for the return line. Great video. Thank for the information.
The same fuel pump damage factory or aftermarket comes with todays fuel prices. Please, never drive around everywhere with 1/4 tank or less. This fuel lubes the pump, cools the pump and reduces wear on internal bushes and rotors used to develop pressure. If you starve your pump, it draws in air, air reduces volume and a reduction in volume is low pressure. Low pressure equals misfire on hard hole shots or turns like big looping interstate off / on ramps. Too many misfires and you threaten to overheat a catalytic converters if equipped. This means the CEL flashes once per second. DK, ASE master, retired.
Not a good video!! I'm even more confused now than when I started.... He said hook the 5/16 from the pump to pressure side of the regulator which is supposed to be 3/8 right? But in the demonstration he hooked the 5/16 from the pump to the 5/16 (supposedly the return) on the regulator, "the bigger middle one" is what he stated... So which is the correct way?
3/8 from tank to prefilter - 3/8 from prefilter to pump - 3/8 from pump to regulator/filter combo. 5/16 return to tank single outlet on regulator/filter to engine
Hello Speedway, that's cheap fuel filter with the bronze insert screening that you are using before the pump, states on the site that it is Not for fuel injected engines, but for carbureted only, Please clarify?? my LS engine is Fi, Thank you.
is there anything more traditional instead of the Clips and or the Quick connects. We have a LS out of a 06 Tahoe 5.3 4L60e going into a 62 C10 Flatbed even if we have to buy new fuel rails and injectors we can spend the money to avoid the quick connects we plan on spending for A under bed In tank Fuel tank/pump
Thought he said what to do if that was the case? Use the EFI filter instead of the one that comes with the kit, think if you call speedworks before you order it and tell them wassup, they’ll help u out
I'm swapping an 850hp LSA into an 04 Silverado and was going Togo with Aeromotive Dual 340 in tank but it won't work with my fuel tank because there isn't a large enough flat spot on top to hole saw a hole to drop the baffle and pumps into the tank and I'd rather not go with external pumps since this is my daily! Do you have a video showing how to retro fit pumps on a stock pump hanger and what size lines I can get away with on the top plate?? Or if no video, can you direct me to a site where I can get this information?? Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks!
This isn’t a complete kit... it doesn’t have fittings for the return line or fittings coming of the regulator, or hose, or hose to an fittings on the tank side. Seems half assed to me
Hose does not come with the pump and filter/regulator kit. We offer Earls in the black EFI hose under number 425750055ERL for the 5/16 by the foot or also in 10 and 20 foot rolls. The 3/8 is number 42575066ERL by the foot or also in the rolls. We also have the special clamps for each and the fittings in straight, 45, or 90 degree.
Can you remove the internal pump on such vehicle as a 1996 4.3 and run a drop tube in its place and run this pump externally? Plan on fuel system for 6.0 running 500hp range on 42lb injectors occasional drag strip use.
We've never attempted a setup like this, but if you call our tech line at 800.979.0122 to discuss your setup in detail, we should be able to get your specific questions answered. Thanks!
@@speedwaymotors On the video he is connecting the fuel pump to the 5/16 on the pressure regulator but on the your website for this product it shows that on the pressure regulator the 5/16 is the return and the 3/8 is the inlet for the pump. I am confused.
If you have a regulator on your fuel rail I don’t believe that you can use the filter/regulator with that system. You need a dedicated return line from the rail back to your tank.
@@speedwaymotors I have Corvette engine 1998 feed and return fuel rails...but I purchased from yourself a msd pump and regulater to run a single fuel line now you are saying that you cant do this with a feed and return fuel rail...I dont want a return fuel pipe...what can I do..
This set up is fucking useless if your ls1 engine has a feed and return fuel rail as a early Corvette engine...what do you do with the return pipe...as its single line...
Man he routed this incorrectly!!!! I just hooked it up like he did in the video, thinking here is the expert, but no! The 3/8 (Large Input near the edge) is the pressure input, and the 5/16 (Small centered) is the return to the tank!!!!
Guy tells you 2 minutes in how to do it correctly, you know "just in case you have no common sense, then he misspoke and said 5/16 is pressure when he got to the pump hook up. It's simple. it's obvious. What he meant. You should probably pay someone else to work on your car if you think you're feeding gas to your motor with a 5/16 line but the return line is 3/8. Here is the toilet paper you're going to have to wipe it yourself now that you're a big boy.
