All part numbers are from Summit and I did mine in black.

I hope this makes sense. Draw it out on a piece of paper and I think it will become more clear for you. You will need your vent set up unless you ordered that on the tank from Boyds and you will need your drain plug in addition to what I listed.

Thanks for the compliments on the build.

This is why I love this forum, you rock!

Exactly what I needed. And I can tell from your list to mine I was doing everything backwards with the AN fittings. Thanks for this level of detail, it's much appreciated.

Keep up the excellent work I'll be looking forward to watching your progress.

What I take tube/filter is this? I was going to fab one up, but the parts alone are near $100. The 4” pipe and silicone couples are what get you.

If for some reason it turns over but wont start, before you start tearing everything apart, replace the old ignition switch with a new one. When they get worn they wont keep 12 volts to the computer long enough to get it to run. A friend just did the same swap. Went thru wiring, sensors even took trans apart thinking something was wrong it. Turns out ignition switch.
