5.3 fuel lines
had a few questions for you ls guys... since my 2003 5.3 has a return line on the intake, I don't have to purchase a fuel pressure regulator correct? i havet found much information on the web.
what fittings did you guys use to convert? I found a few, but wanted to see some others. so far I have found these: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-640850 for feed http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-640860 for return

Re: 5.3 fuel lines
With that setup you do not need a regulator, just a inline filter. I used the Russell fittings for mine, only in black.

Re: 5.3 fuel lines
(X2) The regulator is built into the fuel rail on that style system. Those are the fuel fittings you need.

Re: 5.3 fuel lines
Check on the Russell 644123 and the 644113 (if you like black). They are much more secure than the plastic clip on the other style. Seen a few posts about them popping off.

I boxed my frame rails and used a mustang II kit so I had nice flat frame rails to start with. I ordered these but they are still in the box because I haven't finished the suspension install yet. http://dirtydingo.com/store/index.ph...=1_206_305_321
