280zilla Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Hey guys im starting the fuel delivery build and saw alot of people posting about surge tanks. My question is will i need a surge tank? Ive read the 280z gas tabk has built in baffles and if so does that eliminate the need for a surge tank?

Neverdone Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 You don't need a surge tank. A lot of people run them so they don't get fuel starvation in hard long corners when your fuel level is low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zilla Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 Ty for the info. So if im not running a surge tank all i need is a fuel filter and fuel pump on the sending line? Also what kind of line should i get i have read on the forums that the line should be 3/8. Can someone confirm that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperZ Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Stock 280Z fuel line has no issues for my power level, 350hp or so. 3/8" or AN6 is a reasonable upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zilla Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 (edited) Hey guys just a quick update on this. Looks like im gonna restore my old tank should be intresting. Im going to sump the rear and follow that up with a 100 micron fuel filter pre walbro 255 fp then dollow that up with a ten micron fuel filter to back of fuel rail. From there i have already purchased a isr fuel pressure regulator which will be the return line. Im going with vibrant 6an fuel line and fitting. Planning on runnunf e85. Are the 2 filters recommended or am i overkilling it with a pre 100 and post 10 micron fuel filter. Thnx Edited November 4, 2019 by 280zilla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
