Raptor ??

I just received my Raptor Fuel Pump. I'm very impressed with the kit.
I'll be doing the install this weekend. My question is where would I pick up the matching components ( fittings and hoses) to run from the filter to the VP 44 that match the components in the Raptor Install kit?? I'm currently running -6an Aeroquip lines and fittings.
Thanks Mike

I contacted Toby @ PureFLow Tech about the matching components
to connect the fuel canister to the VP-44 and it looks like they'll have a kit ready sometimes next week. Great guy very helpful and informative.

Talking

Install complete! After removal of my OEM pump and the Holley Red Pusher Pump set up, it was pretty straight forward, had to drop the tank in order to remove the blue retainer clip to the tank suction tube, which took sometime. A little tip about installing the fittings in the 1/2 hose, heat the hose up with a hair dyer and them lube the inside of the hose as well as the barbs with oil, made that part 100% painless. I ran the power supply to the alternator for a corrosion free connection. I primed the system, cracked the fuel line to let air out and she fired right up. The pump is pretty quite, initial pressure was 15 psi and I increased that to 18 psi which was a pleasure to adjust. Holds pressure well and I can't drop below 12 psi at WOT. Nice heavy duty kit

what type of fittings/wiring harness does the raptor take?
I already have a vulcan big line kit, I'm hoping to install a raptor pump in place of the carter soon.

It comes with a complete wiring harness this includes, a Relay, Deutsch Pump Lead, Deutsch ECM Lead, Hot Lead and a Ground Wire. A really nice package. As far as the fuel lines they are 1/2 in and the Fuel pump fitting are -8 SAE for the In port and 3/8 NPT for the Out port. The push lock fittings are -8 swivel to 1/2 push lock. The pump is very heavy duty.

If you don't feel like waiting on Pure Flow, Vulcan has a big line kit to connect your FF to the VP.
