Quote:I run the same feed as return,less extra fittings and hose to stock. Makes since to me.
With my BG 240 , they recommend a -8 feed and -10 return.
Who am I to question why ? That's what I did.
It sort of makes sense , as the -8 should be able to supply plenty of volume for a small block single carb deal like mine and the return will not provide any restriction.....so I guess on paper , it's all good.
The manufacturer should be able to provide requirements for their stuff I bet.

You always want the return line to be bigger than the feed line. You want zero back pressure on the return line. -8 feed and -10 return would be good. Keep the 90 degree bends to a minimum on all lines.

Does the return at the tank need to be above fuel level? I've noticed that low pressure race setups are above and factory high pressure setups are below. Will a low pressure high flow race pump for non fuel injection work with a return in the middle of the tank?

Aeromotive A1000 pump on my cuda w/ a -10 feed and -8 return. Heard the same things you have and was concerned my -8 wouldn't work...called Aeromotive and the tech guy said it'd work no problem. That was almost 4 years ago.

With no scientific evidence , I am going to say yes.
Plumb it into the filler neck or top of the tank for the same reason as using a larger line. You don't want the back pressure that forcing returned fuel to the tank through 1/2 a tank of fuel would provide.
If you're using a cell , there will be a fitting located where ? Yes....on the top.
I put mine on the top front on the pass side because that is the side the return runs down. An oval track deal would want a little more thought than that.
