How much power can those metal fuel lines running down the chassis support?
Looking to run about 350rwk, fuel rail will be upgraded as well as a surge tank setup. Just not sure the hp limit of the fuel lines running down the body can support? |

I doubt fuel lines come with a HP rating....go for gold mate!
Seriously though, the connections will be the only potential fail point if you're going to up the pressure in the lines. Rubber hoses, clamps, filter etc. |

Well I sort of need to know what are the psi ratings of standard fittings then? I'd rather upgrade it now while engine is out but dont want to do it if it's not required. I know fuel rails are good to around the 500hp flywheel mark
Just can't find any info about the limits of AU fuel chassis lines. |

Advice I got from KPM last year was that the chassis lines never need to be replaced. Strong pump(s) and adequate return lines at the motor will see you hitting big HP without a trouble.
