badbob2121 is an unknown quantity at this point
Just wanted to share the information I received from some members on LS1Tech regarding the fittings on the fuel filter/regulator that were included in the Sikky kit.

The fittings included in the Sikky kit have a plastic insert and are a "snap on" style fitting, I have been informed that this style of fitting have potential to blow off due to high fuel pressure, sometimes resulting in a fire. (Please note this is not me bashing Sikky or their products)

Here is a picture of the plastic "snap on" fittings.. (even though the feed and return labeling is incorrect)


and the new improved fitting..



Needless to say, $40 in fittings for peace of mind is well worth it, so I just placed another order to summit racing. A few days delay in the startup, but the weather is supposed to be shit in STL anyway this weekend, so oh well..
