Full fuel flow through the cylinder
heads is the best idea possible. This help keep the fuel
clean and cool. The factory fuel system is designed as a
dead end system. That means that once the fuel enters
the cylinder head, it is there heating up until the
injectors use it.
While that system is a good system, there
are many faults. One of the biggest is the back
injectors running dry or low on fuel pressure
and the internal components of the injectors
getting scared. The scaring eventually causes
the injectors to fail and need to be replaced.
The Trusted Performance Crossover Line
kits help prevent this by equalizing the fuel
pressure between the cylinder heads. The fixed
orifice kit takes it one step further by
returning extra fuel back to the fuel tank.
This can extend the fuel pumps life by
easing the resistance during none wide open
throttle driving (which is approximately 90+% of
the time). Most aftermarket fuel pumps are
regulated at the fuel pump and are capable of
supplying a lot of fuel at that regulated fuel
pressure. So, by adding a small fixed orifice,
we are not lowering the fuel pressure.
By returning a small amount of fuel back
to the fuel tank, we help keep fresh fuel going
into the cylinders. This, also, helps keep the
cylinders free of air, and the overall fuel
quality increases as it is filtered multiple
times (helping extend injector life).
We manufacture stainless steel return
lines that connect to the back of the cylinder
heads and bring the fuel to the top of the
intake manifold. We have given the design of
these lines a lot of consideration. Being
mechanics ourselves, we have cut a groove on the
inside of the banjo fitting for an o-ring. This
o-ring seals the banjo fitting to the head with
very little chance of falling off during
installation, unlike the normal banjo washers.
If one does fall off, no worries, we include an
extra o-ring just in case.
Once the fuel has been directed to the top
of the intake manifold, we use a steel braided
Teflon lined hose to connect the two sides to a
y-block (where the orifice is). From the
y-block, we use another steel braided Teflon
lined hose to connect back to the factory return
line.
The fuel line we use is the standard for
the automotive industry. It is made up of two
different layers. The inner layer is extruded
Teflon® and the outer layer is stainless steel
braid. This is the ONLY line that is designed to
handle diesel fuels, additives, Bio-diesel,
Waste Vegetable Oils (WVO) and all additives
known to us. (Teflon® is a registered trademark
of DuPont Performance Elastomers.)
This fuel line is designed to will outlast
your engine and truck. The operating temperature
of this line is -65 to +450 degrees Fahrenheit.
That means your fuel system will still be
working even when you stop no matter where you
are.
All hose ends are precision machined.
These ends are designed to flow the maximum
amount of fuel without sacrificing quality and
risking cracking or breakage.
All fittings in this kit feature either
o-ring seals or washers. No Teflon tape is
needed during installation. All fittings are
adjustable allowing the fuel line to naturally
run without binding or putting pressure on the
fitting, which could cause failure.
Do not be fooled by imitations. Many other
companies use smaller lines and drill out the
banjo bolt to increase flow. This helps, but it
certainly is not a good alternative. We use the
largest lines and fittings possible without
having to use a reducer. In addition, our lines
are specially designed for diesel fuels and
additives.
This kit does not sacrifice quality or
reliability. We do not believe in that! This kit
comes with a 50 year warranty against defects,
leaks or anything else that comes up. The only
exception is if the lines get cut, pinched
and/or damaged by user error.
