build diary

April 20, 2004: I had been concerned with the sizes of the fuel lines, given that the Miata runs on 5/16" and the tank has a 1/2" outlet.
It turns out that my fears were unfounded - the pump has a 1/2" inlet and we have the adaptors on the shelf at Flyin' Miata to make the outlet 5/16". That was resolved far more easily than I expected! I'm also going to use fuel hose to feed the engine instead of bending up hard lines. While manufacturers use the latter, I suspect it's not for performance reasons.
