Re: 250 to 5.3 swap

I cut the ends of the fuel sender lines so that compression fittings could be installed, then I used an assortment of Dorman Products fuel line repair parts, Dorman nylon fuel line (3/8, and 5/16) for my delivery and return lines. Using AN fittings and stainless sheathed fuel lines was too much for my fixed income (I'm retired). The most expensive part of the fuel system is the tool for inserting the fittings into the lines, but worth every penny for quick and correct assembly. It also helped having a hydraulic flaring tool with the correct dies to make the connection point on the outlet side of the filter/regulator

So far, the system has been trouble free
