Re: Fuel plumbing
ok john, are those red & blue lines ur fuel and nos lines what material are they made of and what are the nos lines rated to on psiJohn_Heard wrote:I don't have any that really show the fuel log real well, this is probably the best one but you can't see the APD bypass regulator. It's at the end of the fuel log the regulators are mounted to.

Re: Fuel plumbing
Those are like nylon but something else, not sure what the material is. It's from Highpower the people that make the nitrous system. They aren't push to connect, these use a crimp like olive connector.

Re: Fuel plumbing
Well this is how my set up endded up looking like. I might just have to make the carb fuel log out of black fittings though. The blue doesn't match anymore!

Re: Fuel plumbing
If you look at the steel braid line going to the pulsoid the last pick, the jet fitting is under the bigger blue fitting on the pulsoid enterance, look just under it and you can see the all black earls pro-lite -4 thats headed toward the passenger side fender! I just realized it's along the fire wall..... tech probably isn't going to like that are they????

Re: Fuel plumbing
The gauge port of the Barry Grant 4 port regulator, or the nitrous regulator/s? Or both?fatso wrote:i put the bleeds in the gauge port with the fittings they supply
Which regulator is the fuel pressure bouncing on?
What model and brand of nitrous regulator are you using?
A picture would help describe your system better..

Re: Fuel plumbing
Do you have a couple Holley 12-803 regulators laying around that you could try for the nitrous regulators? That's what we use and have not had issues with those bouncing, with or without bleeds.
