Here's a generic install thread for installing 1/2" aluminum fuel line, return line, bypass regulator, and an electric pump. This is in a 68-72 A-body ('72 442 clone), but can be applied to just about any body. Keep in mind this is a street car which will be daily driven, and not a show or track car. Functionality is first and foremost, as well as a reasonable degree of safety.

Try to hold off on comments until I get the whole thread posted, please.

First, I laid out the fuel system roughly on a cocktail napkin, just to get an idea of what to initially order parts-wise. My list consisted of a Holley HP150 pump, a Holley billet bypass regulator, RobbMC 1/2" pickup, a 25' coil of 1/2" aluminum fuel line, and assorted AN -8 fittings, push-loc and braided hose.

The tank I'm going to use is an OE one, Spectre, one I replaced not long ago. Suggestion: If your tank is of questionable origin or original, replace it. I think I paid $175 for the one I have, which was with straps and filler neck installed.

Here you see a pic of what I purchased, some odds & ends stuff not shown. I also didn''t use all of what I have shown, since I bought extra stuff, like fittings, so I didn't have to go back and forth ordering and waiting to complete the install. (will explain some later in the thread)
