o Install the high pressure EFI fuel filter (10 micron rating) on the outlet side of the electric fuel

pump (REQUIRED)
 This filter MUST BE rated for an electronic fuel injection system
 Use blue thread locker sealer (Loctite 242 or equivalent) on the filter fittings threads. No

Teflon tape or pipe dope!

Attach fuel line to the chassis
o DO NOT USE OLD FUEL LINE
o Use 3/8 in. high pressure rated neoprene fuel line or 3/8 in. braided steel fuel line (Do not use

solid line)

o Be certain to keep line away from heat source (or shielded if not possible), and fasten securely

to chassis.

o Line should be routed very near the floor pan, and must not be below the lowest level of the

chassis or frame.

Install the pressure regulator to the chassis --
the fire wall or inner fender are suggested
locations
o A pressure regulator must be used to

maintain the correct fuel pressure to the
fuel injectors

o A fuel pressure regulator is included with

the QFT 500 System Master Kit

Install line from throttle body to regulator
o The installation of the fuel delivery system

to the throttle body is very similar to
installing to a fuel log to a modular
carburetor (Quick Fuel Technology, Holley
or Demon). As noted earlier, the regulator can be located ahead of, or behind, the throttle
body's fuel log.

o The fuel enters the throttle body’s fuel log, is distributed to the injectors and excess fuel goes

into the fuel regulator, and is returned to the fuel tank.

A fuel pressure gauge is a supplied as a part of the QFT 500 System Master Kit assembly to help you
monitor the fuel pressure

Install the return fuel line from the fuel tank to the bottom port of the regulator
o It is highly recommended to use a 3/8 in. fuel line

This completes Phase I of the installation
