Here is a picture of the first kit, installed.

As shown here the old filter could be used in a dash 8 setup and the new filter can as well.

It sure looks small!!:confused:

[Dennis Reinhart]

The old filter was smaller Jack, but it still flowed far more than the OEM, and now its been replaced with a larger one.

[BruteForce]

Any upgrade benefit for us "old Kinsler kit" users? Is it just a filter swap or does it have to be remounted?

[juno]

What's the price for the kit??

it will use the same lines as the older one this is a larger filter and will flow more fuel. For those N/A cars that have the older filter there is no real benifit, for the SC cars there is

Dennis which Filter kit did U send me???

[KillJoy]

I may be interested Dennis. How does it connect into the Stock System? Do you cut the Fuel Lines, and splice this in? Do you put on new ends?

Any Pics of the connection?

Thank You.

And how easy is the filter to change? any idea how fine the filter is (microns)?

[massacre]

[Dennis Reinhart]

I just spoke to Brian at Kinsler, both the large anodized blue filter and the smaller black one have a replacement 10 micron filter, I am getting my cost on the lines I will have complete pricing later this week.

[massacre]

Ok sounds good

[Dennis Reinhart]

[BirchMarauder]

Is the fuel filter a throw away? How much is a replacement? How often would u change it?

[Dennis Reinhart]

No it has a replacement element that can be changed I will have complete pictures today.

[Dennis Reinhart]

Ok here it is fresh off the UPS truck and as you can see this is not a small filter, t
his has compression fittings, high quality braided stainless steel lines.

Here of before and after pictures of the Kinsler fuel filter install, as you can see below is the stock OEM fuel filter.

Below this is the complete Kinsler fuel filter kit with the aircraft quality stainless steel brake lines and compression fittings

Shown installed is the new Kinsler fuel filter installed.

Next are showing how the front and rear stainless steel lines are connected to the OEM steel lines by compression fittings.

I could've made this kit less expensive, but when it comes to a fuel system on any ones car I don't want to leave anything to chance, that is why I chose aircraft quality braided stainless steel lines with compression fittings. This will completely rule out the chance of any fuel leaks in the future, due to possibly deteriorating rubber hoses or the clamps that might attach them to an OEM steel line.

how often do have to change the filter ?

As with any paper filter I would say every 15/20 K and I include one free one.

[babbage]

I got the Turbo Blue fuel filter (http://www.reinhartperformance.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=12345&Product_Code=MM-RFF&Category_Code=9) kit from Reinhart. It is a very nice kit and comes with (2) -6 (dash-six) braided stainless lines. You have to cut the MM's existing fuel lines and then carefully sand the line ends to install the steel compression type fittings that they can slide onto the fuel line. Kit also comes with a stainless steel mounting bracket that I didn't use. I ended up adding on a Fitch fuel catalyst it has (dash-six) fittings so it bolted right onto the Kinsler Reinhart kit. I got the larger F4 series for Ford (good for up to 400hp) The website is http://www.fitchfuelcatalyst.com/ Fitch provides you with (2) Ford quick connect fuel lines so I could have installed it in the engine compartment but I thought this was a neater cleaner install to have it inline after the fuel filter.

I did not install this as It was easier for my mechanic to do on a lift. He drilled and tapped the frame and those two bands are very beefy (came with Fitch kit) They totally removed the factory filter and bracket and the small factory lines, clips and all of the major bends over 2' worth.

Turbo Blue filer is way bigger (I'd say twice) than factory. The Fitch system is much bigger however and is very securely bolted to frame with included bands so the Kinsler floats in mid-air.

[bugsyc]

I'd really be interested in how the fuel catalyst performes.noticable difference in MPG? more zip to car etc....also how much are they??? I like your set up..with the big blue filter it looks top notch..:beer:

[rayjay]

Babbs let us know how this works. For 200 clams it better do something noticeable...

Fitch cost the same as about 3 tanks of gas. It should help the engine to run cleaner with emissions etc.

Might go to Esta next week Ray pm me if you wanna go..

Carlisle is next week Eric. We've been booked/payed for since Jan. You and the Mrs have to come down sometime, you'd enjoy it. Try to make MV9, its in southern PA, 5 hrs roughly.

[LANDY]

Dennis I need to replace the filter on my car.
Do you have the replacement in stock?

ME TO!!!if there 9 bucks like u said ill grab 2 or 3 from you

[Dennis Reinhart]

I will order a half dozen today

[Mr. Man]

Dennis this might sound like a dopey question but here goes. This fuel filter kit is really cool looking and its a shame to hide it where no one can see it unless the car is on a lift. Is there any place in the engine bay that would be safe for it to be mounted?

This site may have some well seasoned members on here, but we come with a wealth of knowledge and we are are here to help. There are no dopey questions, and yes it could be mounted under the hood if the car had dash eight lines it would be easy with stock lines that may be done if the right fittings are used, I have several cars here I will look at this approach and let you know.

[Mr. Man]

Thanks Dennis. No big rush. I was just thinking how nice that fuel filter kit would look somewhere you could see it.

[LANDY]

I will order a half dozen todayDennis, I want two of them. Let me know when you have them in your hands.

[Dennis Reinhart]

Dennis, I want two of them. Let me know when you have them in your hands.
