Yes, but the help I am looking for is not clear enough. I am using all the stock wiring harness and need to know if I need to hook all of the plugs in when not using the item it was intended for.

Also, fuel tank lines are not real clear. For the feed line, it could be from the right tank to the left tank or to the engine through the filter/pressure regulator. I do not know which line is the one going to the engine from the left tank and which outlet would I hook the 5/16 relief line too so it would work? It would almost seem that I would need a Y connection so the return fuel from the engine and the release from the filter would join and return to the left tank outlet? Would this be correct? Then there is the vent hose and the pressure sensor hose? Where would I hook these into? Another tee in the 3/8" fuel feed line?

Thanks to anyone with information or referral to that person that has knowledge of all of this stuff. I am in desperate need here.

Painless wiring is not needed as I am using the stock harness for the engine and all other items.

Jerome, I'll email you the fuel system description. Per our conversation, call Andy at A&A corvette in Oxnard, CA....he is a tremendous wealth of knowledge.
