  • fuel system question

    would i gain anything by running 2 fuel lines (one to each fuel rail) from the fuel tank? currently i have areomotive a1000 fuel pump running one line into a y-block then to the fuel rails, how much hp could this support? thinking about adding either a supercharger or a turbo and would like to know if my current set up is sufficient to support the power or do i need another pump and fuel line (one for each fuel rail)? TIA

    Depending on what size your lines are now will depend on the responses on if you have adequate fuel supply.

    I run a -10an (overkill) from the tank to the front of the car where it splits from a Y-block -8an to the rails. Rails feed the regulator and a single line (-8an) runs back to the tank.

    My system is set up to support 800+hp of E85 fuel on a turbo car and is plenty for what I need. YRMV

        You should be fine up to 550-600 but I am sure someone will correct me and say it will support only 300 then another response that they have seen -8 feed support 1100rwhp. I split the difference and ran a -10 but I am pushing 120# injectors

          your feed line from tank to Y block is a -10, Y to rails is -8. I'm sure Aeromotive says this sys is good for at least 800hp.

            I doubt you will pick up anything at all from dual lines.

              Is this a moostang?

              People have made 800rwhp with stock fuel rails and lines. Check your fuel pressure and do a pull.
