Been searching around and can't seem to find any tips on running the -6an feed/return line. It is so tight in that area. Anyone have any suggestions on what way to run the lines or tips on how to get the lines passed the tank? I do have a G I'm assuming the Z is the same clearance issues. Dropping the tank seems like a complete nightmare. If I have to I will. Hopefully someone can give me some advice!!! Thxs

Do it from a tank side first. I did it opposite way and it's nightmare to get the line from a bottom of the car up.

Slide it down from the top you mean? If that's what you mean then I understand that the thing is did you terminate the an lines after? There is no way them fittings are passing by there. Do I have any pics? I need to get three 6an line down there and dropping the tank looks like a complete NIGHTMARE!

Fish a close hanger through there and tape the fuel line to it. It's very tight but I just did this 2 days ago on another car. I was a -8 feed and -6 return. Try not to have any fittings on the lines when pulling them through.

That was my next idea. So what did u do put a Y fitting right by the fuel pump to tie into the -6 outlets for the pump? I'm assuming you terminated the lines in the car once you had them ran?

Yes it's y at the pumps. I can take a pic later and post it. The factory line is still there. I just moved it to the side.

Yeah man if you could that would help thank you!! Just trying to get an idea of where to y it. I would like to do it above also but I didn't think it was possible!!

i have -8 feed and -6 return.
Fit the fitting to ONE end of both hoses
Takes hoses inside car
You must push the hose ends with NO fittings from INSIDE the car and end up with the fittings left near the pump.

you can always get a coat hanger and untwist it into one long wire and push it through first, then tape one end to the end of the hose with no fitting, get under the car and pull on the wire while someone else inside the car guides the hose down.

Do the big one first.

I just bought the CJM twin pump with 255/450 combo. I am planning on running 2 -6 AN hoses out of the pumps into a Y fitting and into a -8 filter inlet and -8 filter outlet. Out of curiosity is anyone running a one way check valve in line with the secondary pump so the primary pump doesnt back feed it?

I'm not running the 450 pump just the twin 255. I didn't run a check valve. Haven't heard of having to do that but I maybe wrong. I have no issues tho

Also never heard of anybody needing to do that. My setup doesnt have one and works fine

Awesome thats one less thing I need to buy haha. If you think about it though its a good possibility that the primary pump could back feed the other if they are T'd together. I have a buddy with a procharged corvette who is running a one way check valve exiting the secondary pump thats why I am asking. Whether he needs to do that or not I dont know. I just know that he is.

The fuel pumps have check valves in them already, so there is no need to add one. This is true of almost every popular in-tank fuel pump available on the market today.

Also, you do not need to put the hoses around the tank with no fittings on them. Hoses with fittings will fit, you just have to be assertive. Get a nice light, and look at what the hose fitting is running into that you cannot get passed, then reach up there with a pry tool to push it around the obstacle and away you go!

All of our fuel system kits ship with the hoses pre-assembled and they get installed this way no problem! It is easy once you have a nice light and identify your obstacle so you can guide around it.
