Ohhhhhh, the suction tube. I re-read your original post and now I get it. I thought you were seeing a single piece that incorporated all of the fuel functions in one piece. You were suggesting multiple suction tubes in multiple sizes appropriate for their use be added to the fuel tank. Got it now. I was having a dense moment.
Does a banjo fitting have a smoother internal flow than a 90 degree fitting?
In order of best to worse, cobra head which FORD tinkered with for fuel delivery, smooth radius AN w/PTFT Teflon coating, smooth radius AN, banjo and dead last the right angle 90 degree.
That doesn't make any sense. It sounds like your last conversation with them was difficult too. I believe ratman called Fuelab and had good conversations with them. That coupled with the quality of the demo video you shared with us makes me think they are a more worthy manufacturer to work with.
Those look sweet! Yeah, maybe overkill, but also maybe good inspiration....
Yea, I'm trying to find some radius fittings for my new fuel filter assembly. I've found some on Ebay
I suspect fuel return plays a big role in how that pressure rises 'pump big volume and same sized return must become and issue at some point.'
The 1:1 answer makes much more sense. Yes, it's based on the pump's ability to make that much pressure, but until it gets to that pressure it's 1:1. Makes sense.
That's true, but that's easy to explain. All they need to state is that with properly sized lines, it will increase pressure at 1:1 ratio.
AN fuel fittings, or?
That's what I was thinking. You can get those at Summit for one place. Here's an example:
However, on the bay prices are generally cheaper and the SS braided teflon hose can be had on the cheap too.
I will have to do some shopping on the bay. What’s nice about Summit is being able to use the filters to find the fitting in the configuration you’re looking for. But if you can save money, then the bay is a good alternative for sure.
