Fryeken Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Bill, close. Here is my setup And the wix filter that looks to tie it together After some more investigation and thanks to all of the original material here I found out that someone deleted the fuel filter, or some factory hot fuel setups came with the sintered bronze filter in the inlet. Two- I can’t put a pressure gauge after the separator. Three, looks like I’ll just add a filter setup between the hard and rubber lines coming to the separator. Maybe do a fuel block and add a pressure gauge. This way I can just run the 1/2-20 line into the 1/2-20 to 9/16-24 adapter for the Holley carb. Then it is an easy switch back to the stock carb once rebuilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will keep the fuel flowing, eliminate vapor locking, and let you set the pressure for the carb. One of these from Summit would work well.
