yes, i did
no, sorry
and go ahead, it puts the pressure where it should be

I was asking about the wiring because I have heard of people say that they run into starting problems with the Holley running from the get go because it is a little too much pressure on start up. I was thinking of running it on a relay and a toggle switch and just manually switch it on after start up. But then I would prolly forget to turn the dumb thing off.
What part number of the Holley blue is everyone using and where have you found it for a good price?

I installed it without the regulator at first, but my psi was at 27 at idle, and I could only pull it doen to 24! I figured this was too much, so we added the regulator, and I set it to 13-14 at idle now. I hooked the holley up to a fuse that has power when the key is open. I haven't had any hard starts and the fuel pressure barely moves down with the smarty on 7. Just keep on eye on all of your fittings, make sure nothin leaks.
Now I'm startin to wonder if my clutch will stand up to the smarty and some mach 1.6's since my fuel problems are solved.

Is there only one line under there to hook it into that is coming out of the fuel tank, or is there a return line under there as well?
How do I know what line to hook it into?
Thanks for all the help!!! As soon as I get my truck back I am going to do this. It is in the shop for a tranny leak right now, that is why I can't just look and figure the lines out by climbing under mine.

In talking with FASS...feul can't be sucked through the in-tank pump. Pressure to the VP can of course be boosted, but a failure of the in-tank pump will mean a failure to deliver fuel.
I bought a FASS2, but before I installed it, the VP went out. Dealer put new VP and in tank pump. From what I read here, I'd rather rely on the FASS.
Thoughts?
