Deleting fuel bowl
 
Are there any ways to delete the fuel bowl with out spending a bunch of money? I alread have the filter and everything.

Are you talking about the fuel tower that houses the fuel filter? Right behind the HPOP resevior? Why do you want to delete it?

ITP/Sinister Diesel sells a bowl delete fuel system which is the best on the market IMHO, but its not cheap. I have one... Dennis is not a sponser yet, but I am working on that.

Otherwise you would have to build a fuel system. Which is not that hard, just not as pretty as Dennis's

Because the factory fuel filter sucks... Its prone to leaks, and does not filter very well.

My filter set up filters down to 2 micron.

I have three filter that i will replace it with that goes down to 2micron. I have access to just about whatever i need so i would like to build a fuel system. Im not really concered if it isnt 100% pretty

i think the factory filter is only 13microns, my system filters down to 2microns

I wouldn't want to go straight for a 2 micron filter. I'd run a pre-filter of 10 microns and then the 2 micron. The 2 micron straight up might "clog" fast if it has to remove everything. Plus I have to imagine its a little more expensive than a 10 micron, so for every say 3 replacements of the 10 you only have to replace the 2 micron once.

I have the whole system myself that I have to install yet. It starts with a 5/8 SS intake tube into a 10 micron w/ water seperator, a aerodyne pump, into a 2 micron, up to a distribution block, into the heads, out of the heads to a pressure regulator, back to a 1/2" ss return way back in the tank.

I go from tank to a 10 mic/water seperator to a factory pump to a 2 mic to a factory pump to the motor...
