Author	Topic: Overkill on fuel system?
MrWesson22 Gearhead Posts: 459 From: Dacula, GA Registered: Sep 2000	posted 12-17-2001 07:00 AM Are there any negative side effects of having a fuel system that's significantly larger than the car needs (other than the carb)? After I'm through playing with this cleveland, I'm going to build a 460 or 385 based stroker of some kind. I'm thinking about getting a sumped fuel tank from aeromotive that comes with -10AN lines. I could either use adapters and go with -8 forward, but if it's not going to have any serious effects, I'll just use the -10 in anticipation of having much more motor later on. ------------------ Neal Member #723 [email protected] AIM: MrWesson22 69 Gulfstream Aqua Grande 351C/Toploader 4sp IP: Logged
