I am looking at getting some of the following shipped from the states and I was wondering if anyone else is interested in one.



Russell-Ford-EFI-6-AN-straight-pressure-side-reusable-specialty-adapter-fitting

I have not been able to find them over here, so it looks like the only option is to get them shipped across. They also do a -8 version if anyone needs that. I don't have any definite prices yet but they cost $22 over the counter so it will be something similar to that plus the shipping.

Carefull, once the declared value goes over $30 it will be liable for VAT and a £8 handling charge, so they would all need to be shipped seperatly.

+1 on that...i just changed all my braided teflon fuel pipes, i had to take it all down to my local hydraulics shop attached to the fuel rail...note on these pipes one they get kinked they are no good.

I'm interested in one of these. How do I know if I want a -8 or a -6?

Do I only need one, I see Simon has said he wants 3.

I the US in a couple of weeks, so I may be able to help with transport if not too urgent.

Thanks
Andrew

-6 will realistically see you to more power than a noble engine can ever run smile

Id be interested in -8 so I can convert mine to a dual return to my regulator as this is the return on my modified rail.

spoke to pete... he may have a few in stock but we both seem to remember that I had the last one.

He did confirm you cant get these in the UK and have to be shipped in from the US.

Boys boys, where is everything made these days?
China.
I think this is the company that makes most of the dash connectors

http://www.auto-sinovision.com/Racing/115.htm

I don't know if they make that part, but if you give me a part number I can try and find out who does, if you want to do a group buy, there is no import tax in Macau.

The part is made by (or made for) Russell Performance and its part number is 640900 (for the blue one) and 640903 (for the black one).

The -8 ones part number is 640880 (blue), and 640883 (black).
