I’m trying to figure out how to solve my fuel routing issue. Quick back story: my 73 Stang has the drivetrain from an 87 TBird 5.0 in it. That vehicle’s fuel routing has both of the lines coming into the engine compartment near the frame sway bar mount. So, on my 73, I made my own fuel feed line to come up the passenger side, almost identical to the stock fuel line path, and I used the stock fuel line as my return.
So, routing fuel to the engine was easy, but routing the return is not so satisfactory. What I would like to do is find a factory fit fuel rail with regulator setup that is setup to exit the rear of the engine, for the return, while keeping the feed line at the current location. I’ve done a bit of searching on-line to find an 5.0 setup that fits that description, without any success.
Here is what my current setup looks like:
I’m good with the feed line where this one is. I just need the return hard line to exit somewhere in the rear, instead of like this configuration that parallels the pressure side towards the passenger front. I hope one of you guys remembers a year and model that fits close to this. I’d hope I could find one at a pic-a-part or maybe someone has one to sell. Thank you for the generous advice.
