    I haven't taken the extra length out yet. Right now I don't have the tools to redo the line. I would just take a rope or something and kind of mock up how much you need.
    An issue I ran into was not having alot of tools like for the an fittings etc. Have about every other but still need more.

    I can't find the part #'s I ordered on there website but in there catalog the part # is 5800 for the quick connects and 5090 for the adapters. They list them under TPI fittings. 14mm and 16mm.
    Hope yours is the same and nobody has changed fittings or lines in the past to something different if you know what I mean.

    Ok I have someone that was going to do me custom lines but I was going to check their price against what you paid.

    Ok so one end of that would thread directly into the adapter on the fuel rail because its -6AN and then the other end I would have to buy -6AN to 14mm adapter to fit the filter and -6AN to 16mm to fit the return line right.

    sounds good. I hope to make a thread of everything I've used during this swap once everything gets done. I'm awaiting another PCM and hopefully mine will be running.

    Like I said if your fuel filter and line looks like this one/or is factory then most likely its the same but with any used vehicle sometimes the previous owner doesn't put things back to factory. Just for your own satifaction you may want to take the adapter fittings off and measure them up to a chart just to make sure that is it.
