Default Return less EFI?

Hi All! Looking for advise/experience on using a return less in tank fuel module for an EFI conversion.
I'm thinking of using the Holley module along with their Sniper on my 65 convertible.
Also, wondering if there's 1 1/4" of clearance above the tank for the fuel module or will I need to purchase an EFI tank.
Appreciate your input!!

Hank

Thanks for the link! Looks like it went well for you - aside from the super quick throttle response that required attention.
What tank did you use?
I'm still thinking of the no return line fuel module - only one line to run back to the tank.

Thx again!
Hank

I know this thread is a little dated, but if you are
​​​​​​still looking to eliminate the return line from the throttle body, use a filter/regulator combo like linked below and mount close to the tank. You still need a return line of course, but the run will be much shorter.

Filter/Regulator
