Fuel Filter

[6 pot]

Good evening

I am fitting a LS3 engine into a defender. This engine needs fuel at 60 PSI and I am told that a Corvette has a fuel filter that regulates to 60 PSI. could you please tell me the part number and a UK shop that sells them.

Thanks

Not sure the fuel filter actually does the regulating. You might want to investigate this:

Although I suspect the LS3 is post-2002.

These are cheap filters:

I made that mistake then a bit of a read up on interweb shows that these engines are now returnless systems, and the fuel filter is inclusive of the regulator. Someone ripped one apart and found it to be a decent set up too, looks like it's been used in applications greater than 500 rwhp.

Due to the dead end setup, you will likely find the regulator is in-tank along with the pump.

Make life easy for yourself and install a normal return style setup, using any decent quality pressure regulator of your choice.

You can still use the rails as a dead end, just place the regulator before the rails.

Then you can also use any fairly normal efi filter, of which there are many
