Which fuel pipe do I hook the fuel filter upto and which fuel pipe on my SR does the fuel filter then connect to?? I'm 99% sure which goes where but I wanted to double check.

Next question.. Heater core conections, Which hose goes to which opening (top or bottom) One has a branch that goes to the turbo, does that hose conect to the top or bottom opening?

Yeah.. I feel like a idiot I'm used to KAs and things are positioned a bit differently with this SR.

The line that goes to the fuel filter shoult go straight to the fuel rail.

The line without the fuel filter should go to the nipple on the fuel pressure regulator on the end of the fuel rail.

I dont think the heater core connections matter, but i have the one coming from the turbo side of the motor going to the upper heater core pipe, and I have the line coming from the intake side of the motor going to the bottom one.

On the KA, the feed line is shorter and has the fuel filter, and the longer line is the return line (longer b/c it has to reach the FPR outlet, whereas the feed line only has to get to the bottom of the fuel filter on the passenger side strut tower.

If you're really not certian, just put both lines in a bucket and have a buddy jumper your fuel pump really quick. Whichever one squirts fuel is the feed line and goes to the filter. The one that isnt squirting fuel is the return line and goes to the FPR's outlet on the side of the fuel rail.

BTW that ^ method is potentially dangerous. Turn off all electrical devices, no smoking, and have a fire extinguisher on hand. Doing it outside is probably better as well.
