This weekend is a long weekend. Originally I was hoping that I could get the car actually running with the L33 5.3 but I do not think that is in the cards. My LS6 intake has still not shown up…
Instead I will be taking my time working on the fuel system and hitting the junk yards for misc pieces to make the swap even more clean. I am working on an idea to hide the bulk of the wiring harness as well!
The plan on the fuel system is to take the stock pump housing and cradle and adapt the -6 an lines and bulkhead fittings to it. Then plastic weld the original ports closed. Not pretty but will do the job.
From the tank to the hard line I will be running -6 an SS braided line.
The Feed line will be 3/8″ Aluminum Fuel line using Russell no flare -6 an adaptors
The Return line will be 5/16″ Aluminum Fuel line using a Russell no flare -6 an adaptor
The fuel filter will be connected to the hard lines via -6 an adapters.
The fuel rail will be connected to the filter via Fuel Rail adapter, Fuel pressure gauge, and -6 an line.
I have a feeling that this will take me most of the day to build… but I need tasks for all weekend. I am sure I will come up with other things that need to be done!
Might even get a little paint work and stuff done… We’ll see!
Here is what is waiting for me to assemble!
