aftermarket sending unit? Return line issues
Does anyone know if there are sending units for the top of the tank with larger fittings? Put a holley regulator w/bypass(blue ele. holley fuel pump already on) on my dads car and the regulator wont work right with with 5/16 return on the stock 1/4 nipple at tank. Regulator says 3/8 return minimum. I'm going to pull the 5/16 and make sure its not kinked and dump it in a can to bypass the 1/4 nipple to see if it will work that way. let me know if you got any good ideas.

I just looked at the Lars return. That's just for vapor lock it wouldn't help with my problem. My problem is the size of the return not the lack of one/vapor lock. I also saw a place called RobbMC Performance that makes sending units with 1/2" lines but nothing on their website for corvettes. I think i will just get a bulkhead AN fitting and drill the stock sending unit.

I think RobbMC does custom applications. I am sure he would make you one for the Vette. Give him a call. The guys on Chevelles all say he does one off stuff.
