limits of the stock fuel lines
just as the title says what is the limit for the stock lines? the car is 383, with a t-trim and will be around 540 to the wheels. I am looking at the racetronix kit, with 50lbs injectors? any input is appreciated
thanks

Re: limits of the stock fuel lines
Although I run braided S/S fuel lines, they are essentially the same size as the stock supply line (-6AN vs. 3/8") and only slightly larger on the return line (-6AN vs. 5/16"). I'm making 800 flywheel HP on a 300-shot of dry nitrous, with an 0.53#/HR/HP BSFC. Fuel system is dual Bosch 205 LPH pumps, running in parallel, and 78#/HR injectors at 58psi. The stock-sized fuel lines seem more than adequate at that level. I do have the fuel rails "split" to run in parallel, rather than in series.

The Delphi 17113738 does not tune easily with a LT1 ECM/PCM.
