i have a few questions. since this is my first time messing with this stuff where to the next following things connect to

 

I know there is one 3/4 elbow that hooks up to the intercooler piping but where dose the brass 90 in the back go along with the 2 other nipples

then on my freddy intake manifold there are three threaded holes at the bottom of the mani that im not to sure what goes in there

I purchased my motor with parts in boxes and i am assuming that the top hole is part of the emissions? or am i way off and they are part of the cooling

What kind of ideas you got going for fuel (tank, pump, lines, etc).

 

I'm planning to revamp my setup. Currently I use the stock rail and injectors. Modified the existing 510 gas tank and welded in a Z31 intank fuel pump assembly. Ran new hardlines.

 

My idea is to run Earls stainless flex lines and utilize AN fittings to minimize areas of potential leaks and get a better seal than clamps.

I have a fuel cell with a sending unit and foam blocks inside. The fiel tank is already set up with AN fittings so im running 6 an stainles to the walbro 255 then hard lines to the fpr and from there 6 an stainless to the rail and for the return 6 an stainless to hard lines all the way back and finally back to 6 an stainless to the cell

just a thought check out the link above and it uses side feed injectors as well. or you can tap a pipe threaded 6an adaptor at the end of the stock rail for your return line.

Topher, I dont think you will have to run a surge tank since you have anti sloshing bricks in the tank. Does your tank have a small sump where the an pick up fittings are?

 

Ya there is a little sump at the back where the an fittings are. And I graded the tank a little so the fuel always go to the fittings

I wouldnt worry about it then. you should see the cup for a 240sx tank that the fuel pump pickup strainer sits in. Kind of scary, it only has one 3/8 hole in it. I know I am going to have to modify that since my fuel demands are going to be greater than a KA24DE.

Good to know. I'm going to be running 810 injectors so I need to be able to empty my cell within a few minutes lol

Threaded holes in the bottom of the intake should be for vacuum lines. The T breather line on your valve cover usually gets converted to a single and than runs to a catch can the breather from your block also goes to the same catch can. You may be able to see what I mean in these photos

I used a pipe thread fitting to 3an push on fitting for my lines then silicon lines to the FPR, WG and BOV. and a 6an to the PVC valve.

My Boost controller and Waist Gate came with 4an sized lines and I need to up the size when the parts show up.

 

AN fittings are the point of no return I like XRP and have a local supplier that has helped me out a ton with what should go were. Id say find a local shop and use them you will get your moneys worth just in information.
