hi bud use braided hose through the car //safety first geo

my system wont be high pressure //low pressure to swirl pot /// s /pot to h/pressure pump forward to fuel rails //rtn to s/pot //excess to tank dont like the idea of walbro feeding s/pot unregulated(pressure) ,that means you have 2 pumps working against each other ihmo geo

hi m8 6mm would be too restrictive on flow you need at least 8mm id geo

8mm fuel lines and standard 4.75mm brake pipes you can spend a fortune on aeroquip fuel pipe ends or go for the type i used from BSH in grangemouth geo

no you dont m8 ,you can use a large screwdriver to push pads/pistons back first check car when cold jack up front and try to turn wheels ///see if there free you will get some resistance from driveline. i have had 2 cars that the master cylinder was sticking on the hyd /side .hopefully yours is just a maintanance problem like pads sticking in the saddles and not sticking pistons. where are you from bud geo

here is the latest mods to track car guys ///fuel system we are running red top pump low pressure to the swirl pot fed from tank with modified pick up pipe the swirl pot then feeds the high pressure pump ,first through a merc filter then to the fuel rail we have fitted an alloy firewall for safety, and the aircraft spec hoses are then coupled through the f/wall on high pressure connections (piccs to be taken the pump is a sytec mounted on a c class fuel pump bracket with rubbers to combat vibration problems good old mercedes parts all the fuel system parts are rubber mounted SUSPENSION MODS TO REAR we have fitted adjustable whiteline track(PINK) (powered coated by us at Williams powder coating ) arms to allow us to increase the track width ,verus competion coil overs were the first mod before we stripped the car down to mod for the track/ sprint/ hillclimb . we were impressed with the handling from the start. buy playing with bump and rebound,then adjusting the crossover settings the handling just got better and better with no sacrifice in ride quality..here is some piccs first step was to remove the old track arms //the long bolt through the hub that locates the track arms were fooooooookin tight they wee japs can tighten nuts the toe adjusting bolt thar subaru use to adjust tracking this will be deleted fr a toe lock kit bolt type an tracking is carried out on the new track arm adjusters.the inner bolt is still used to locate the arm we then removed the radius arms ,again bolts were tight so i removed the chassis mounting brackets(3bolts ) so that i could then get them in the vice to slacken the long location bolts the new poly sus/bushes to be fitted in the hub carrier and radius rod after p/coating the new bars fitted alloy d/links and stout mount kit 27mm on,all bushes lubed all bolts coppersliped to ease strip down later kev and i had already fitted poly bushes to the diff xmember this stops the x member banging //movement against the chassis on quick up shifts and downshifts that all for to-nite more piccs and our mods at the weekend geo
