Ok guys here comes another stupid question. So setting up my fuel delivery, I'm trying to use braided line and have ran into the problem of my line not working with the e2000 pump fittings. Suggestions as to connecting everything? I have fuel lines set to 3/8 and using stock fuel rail.

Any input is appreciated. Thanks

I think this should get you to -8

Some people have had good luck attatching a modified -8 fitting to the pump itself

Or use these(pretty sure this is the right size, you should measure your pump to be sure)

Good lord lol, thanks for helpful people and the internet. Seems this would be a common problem for the conversion guys but haven't come across anything on here yet. Now to call tomorrow to find out the bs prices for russell fittings.

I went on a quick search for the fittings I used for my GM fuel filter, that lead into a spiral of google searches to realize that they have been updated to the much nicer Russel fitting I linked Very Happy.

Your welcome.

Yeah at least I'm glad the e2000 is a popular pump. Another $100 in fittings and hopefully now im good to go.
