Looks good, that return line should help keep that fuel cool and circulating.

Default Awesome work!

I dig that return line and the flare fittings of the fuel filter.
Did you insert a small 0.040" someting orifice in the return to limit flow? Just a thought.
Man, now you can run a single outlet pump - like my carter - and it will self regulate all day - no more vapor lock worries for you Budman.

Nice,
