[QUOTE="SnakeBoostE85, post: 15749602, member: 160175"] I finally got around to installing a simple 4 pass heat exchanger on my fuel system... and so far its amazing!!! My fuel, rails, pressure regulator all stay basically at or slightly above the ambient temperature. I drove 75 miles heat soaked the shit out of it... destroyed a ricer and a motorcycle, came home and I could put my hand on the pressure regulator, rails, all the aluminum AN fittings were basically lukewarm to the touch while the blower and everything else on the motor would burn you. Now granted its 45 degrees outside here right now... the *real* test will be next summer when its 90+. But even if were talking 40-50 degrees, we are still well under the 190+ fuel temps I had. I'm running the basic flow through return style, and it keeps the entire fuel system from heating up. Does anyone see any issues with this? Am I missing something here? Why go dead head with all the dead head problems, mounting the regulator in the wheel well and all that plumbing vs. such a simple modification like this? Definitely interested in other opinions here. [/QUOTE]
