Scott, I am running 1/2" fuel feed, 3/8" return. I have the car this torn apart, I am going overkill for the fuel system. The little turbo Buick don't need that size line yet, but it will :twisted: :twisted:

If you are running a 1/2" fuel line will the line in the tank cause you any problems? It's under a 1/2"

Steve, I have an aluminum sending unit top I fabricated. I has 2 -6 fittings in there now. When/if I need to use the full 1/2" (-8) line, I'll put a -8 fitting in there. I have a hanger to run two pumps in the tank. I'll be running the wiring and all for 2 pumps, since the EBL-6 ECM will control 2 pumps.

That was just a cardboard cutout for a template, I'll add a few pics of the brackets that I actually plasma cut out.

I cleaned them up, and then I TIG welded them all together. I am no professional, but I think they look pretty good.
