With CV's installed on D2 side..(at motor, under the fuel hardlines), the FRx attaches to the ports not used..d/s rear, p/s front. With my FRx in place, i removed the 3-port barb..(labeled RIFFRAFF), and installed a 3-way barb..1/4 x 1/4 x 3/8.

I left the FRx FPR on fuel bowl, but "looped" the 2-barb fittings coming off of it..(in case somethings to happen, i remove the loop fuel line, and plug the FRx lines back to it, flipping the 3-port barb.

The 2 1/4in lines feed from the new 3-port barb, and the 3/8 barb feeds the manifold located inside the valley, where my wvo comes into..via aluminum manifold with 5-stations..(pics in album).

I was chasing down hydraulic lines/fittings to incorporate where the FRx is now, and thats when it hit me to ask the psi on the line. Reason being, i get high psi.100+psi, when run'n D2 til systems hot enough. Not sure why, but think the split shots play a role. Anyway, with Clay's response, i'm stoked. Gonna install the purge valve down in valley now along with the manifold, and feedthe D2 lines from bowl to it..(manifold), with CV's on manifold, instead of at motor...(if ever a failure it would be a PITA to get to).

Just got my 3-way solenoid in, so now, i'm gonna use my wvo pump to feed both d2 and wvo. My factory D2 side will only be for if my wvo pump fails.
