Question Fuel Bowl Delete Mod?

I can't find a link to a description/instructions to the fuel bowl delete mod.

Anyone know of a link with good description/instructions?

Parts necessary to remove the bowl and leave it off. I am planning some fuel line/filtering changes (maybe a regulated return) and want to start mapping out what I need to do.

I may just only be able to afford to do an RiffRaff fuel cross over for now, but want to study the options.

I think that I have seen the write up on what to remove and what to put back in its place (post pump filters, fittings in the heads, lines...).

I am going to RRE at the end of the month and want to be able to look at other folk's trucks to see how they did the hard/tricky parts.

Thanks.

you will need to do the R&R first or at the same time...if you re move the bowl now you will not have a regulator in place to control the PSI...the FRX does not have a regulator...

Thanks. I knew a regulator was involved. Like I said, I am in the planning/learning stage.
