Okay, got the new fitting from Vulcan and finished the install from the bottom of the fuel filter to the injection pump

Here's at the bottom of the filter:



By the injection pump (note - schrader fitting for the FP gauge hose hooks here)



Difference between stock parts and Vulcan parts:

Nice write up fight4yourrights, I'm going to be doi ng the same to my truck in the next month or so. I just had my VP44 and LP replaced by my dealer under warranty so I got the in-tank LP. If you don't mind me asking, how much did all the parts cost you, so I can get an idea of what I'll be spending? PM me please.

No problem. Vulcan Performance

Vulcan Pusher Pump System™ for 98.5 to 02
LP Relocation kit for 98.5-02 Dodge/Cummins trucks.
PRICE: $115.99

Vulcan Draw Straw II™
Vulcan draw Straw II
PRICE: $29.99

Cummins Campaign pump $65 and tax



I was thinking of pulling the bed, but I guess it's pretty heavy.

My truck is lifted enough I can get under it and drop the tank with/out jacking it up

The Draw Straw II, which is what I used, is meant for those with in tank pumps - so it doesn't have a return, you use the stock.

The Draw Straw looks like it has a return
