Default Fuel feed line and fuel return line??

Im prepping my engine by replacing all the vacuum lines and such, and found both fuel lines. Which one is the fuel feed line and fuel return line? Aft line = feed, Fwd = return? Or vice versa?
I don't want to wait until the engine is in to measure for fuel line. Thanks!

GS300 is returnless, so you have a feed only.

+1. Return-less setup with an in tank filter (built into the fuel pump assembly, but can be ordered separate).

Then yes, the 2jzgte is a return style setup. You would need to run a separate return line, and delete the regulator in the oem 2gs pump assembly, utilizing the factory 2jzgte regulator on rail (or aftermarket). A small task to conquer compared to what else is needed to get the 2jzgte non vvti to run with the ac/gauges/ps/ect.

I will be running my 2jzgte off of my factory computer, and wiring harness, with aem fic. I can keep all my amenities, have boost, and pass obdii inspection. just an easier route to go. I do want to eventually run a 2jzgte computer with my gs alongside my factory computer to run my gauges, ac, ps, ect.

The simple version of the answer your looking for is the feed is on the side of the block and the return is at the FPR on the rail.

Thank you sir!!! Since I have the Aristo Fuel pump assembly I shouldnt need to delete any thing in the tank correct? From looking at it, it seems like a plug and play pretty much. The one thing I will need is the clip to secure the return line to the top of the pump housing. Ughhhh, where will i find one of those??

Correct, if you got the whole hanger/pump assembely no tank mods are needed. Plug and play, other. than of course u still have to run a 5/16 line for the return.

Make sure u get fuel injection rated hose, not plain carb or vacuum hose. It will say fuel injection, fi, high pressure, or similar printed on the hose.

Yea, I went to NAPA and they want $30 for 13ft of hose. So before I buy it Im going to take some string and run it along the path to the fuel tank and then get an exact measurement.
You wouldnt happen to know where I can get one of those clips needed to secure the the fuel line to the top of the fuel pump assembly? I only have one and I need a second.

FInd yourself a Parker store or other industrial hydraulic hose shop. You should be able to find a fuel rated hose much cheaper.

Is there a DIY with pictures for this project? I know it may seem easy to some but Im still having trouble trying to figure out how to do this and where to begin. Ive got my 3UZFE out of the car and a fresh VVTI 2JZGTE ready to go in. I know its a returnless system but is this mod really a requirement? Someone hook me up before I go crazy!
