Fuel system


Thought I'd start to tackle my fuel system to get away from the leads. Professional Products regulator and Autometer fuel pressure gauge which will be attached with s/steel braided fuel line.

Appreciate your comments!

Not much has happened over the past few weeks as I've been away on business.

Have got my fuel line & Pro flow fuel filter mounted above the gearbox. Got my braided lines for the webers half done just have to measure and get the fittings put on.
