Wildcat Fuel Line Installation Part One

Got part one done of the Wildcat fuel line install thats the bottom of the cannister to the Inlet of the VP44. What I noticed is the instructions are very clean on this part (wink,wink ROD) and went very easily!

It took a little longer then anticipated because I did not cut one of the lines perfectly straight and had a leak but was solded with a quick cut to straighten things out.

What I noticed is 1 PSI increase in FP at idle the system takes longer to loose FP under WOT and recovers quite well. The system also has a 1 PSI higer cruise pressure. Keep in mind this is only stage 1 and I still have to finish the other parts.

Curious to see what the final pressure increase will be. I got more than that with bigger banjo bolts..

I'd venture a guess that the 'wink wink' is intended as a jab at me. ;D No matter what Rod says...its all his fault the install destructions were so so...LOL
At least its a system that works. I was so dang mad at another one that I just had to design this. Did you notice how the fittings maintain the inner diamater too?

Yes scotty its a sweet kit and works! I would like some pics of the rest of the install before I start it (JAB) because I don't really know what Im replacing! I have the written from Rod but a pic is worth a 1000 words!
