Time for some "Fuel and Ignition" stickies - ideas????

Probably a good idea to post some links to, or do some original writeups on FAQ topics like:

-4th Gen fuel pump install - "by the book"
-4th Gen fuel pump install - "cut a hole"
-Racetronix fuel pump install instructions (they don't seem to provide any???)
-injector sizing
-injector part numbers/sizes
-fule pump part numbers/capacity

Any other suggestions for topics are welcome. Any links to the above topics will be considered for inclusion. If you have an original writeup you would like to contribute, let me know.

I'm pretty sure I have the Racetronix instructions at home. If I scanned them to contribute to the board do you think this would cause potential copyright issues?

I don't know about the Racetronix instructions. I guess one of us could ask for permission. You would have to do it, because at least one person at Racetronix doesn't care too much for me.

I would like to see what injector brand/type fits the best in the rail and manifold itself. ie. accel, msd, venom, delphi, bosch, Ford ect. and what the general consensus is on that particular brand.

We have included instructions with our FLT1 harness and pump assembly for a number of years now.

We do not like people posting our instructions on the net. One reason is that we want customers to come to us so we know they are getting the latest revision.

If a valued customer is missing the instructions all they have to do is e-mail support@racetronix.com with their contact info, vendor name and product number and we will send them what they require in PDF format.

There is nobody here that has a problem with you Injuneer. If you care to explain why you think this you can e-mail us about it.

No one individual has contributed more to my passion of cars than Injuneer so love him or hate him we all need him. Hope this doesn't sound like sucking up.

Do you think it would be possible if you could post the latest version on the net? The only reason I ask is that I have come across past posts where customers have been in a bind where they needed to get their Racetronix pumps installed promptly, but were unable to get ahold of someone at Racetronix to get the instructions. If you posted the directions here and maybe updated it whenever a revision is made, it might make it easier for existing and future customers of your pumps.

Something for modifying fuel rails/hard lines for AN fittings. Style and part# for compression fittings for adapting hard lines to braided lines.

Common fuel system setups. Everyone is always asking about parallel versus series and where to mount the regulator, filters, etc.
