Yeah everything listed there will work. I wouldn't use those Summit push-connect fittings, I had ordered them but returned because they were garbage, too bulky to fit side by side and one plastic insert would allow the fitting to pull right off with some force. I used Russell fittings and they worked awesome.

I don't think you need that inline filter because the wix part is the pressure regulator and filter in one. Otherwise your list looks ok at a glance. You might want some angled fittings like 45 or 90 degrees, the kit I have listed came with an assortment and I haven't picked out which ones I'll use yet.

Thanks for the input, i'll check out the Russell fittings. I'm a return-style though, so i don't need the Wix filter/regulator. I just need a generic filter, correct?

Yep I think that's right, the regulator is on the intake.

Re: Relocated Gas Tank with Pump in the Tank

greenstepper, all depends on what fuel pressure you want to have at the rails, I put a vette filter/regulator on mine going to a ls1 stock vette/camarro fuel rail.... some do it all so differently... good luck post photos of it all!!
