Default Getting Rid of Banjos

Just kinda curious but how would the Fuel System work, better or worse, if I replaced the Banjo Bolts with 90* fittings etc.?

Vulkin sells a nice line and fitting upgrade kit, I would do a pump though too

remember pressure is simply the resistance to flow so upgrading the system to better flow lines and fitting will result in less pressure

in the end pressure doesnt mean much to me other than it must be positive, volumn is where its at because the fuel carries the heat away from the VP and supplies lubricity as well

any lines going into the pump should be upgrade to -AN fittings imo. the only line i dont mess with is the fuel return
