Looking like a great project man!
Ditch the bullshit worm drive hose clamps for mini T bar bolt types. Much better in the mid-long run.

you might want to save up and buy some stainless braided fuel line with all the proper fittings after you get your fuel situation sorted out. running pressure to those rubber lines makes me nervous.

The only rubber lines will be on the suction side of the pump and the end of the return line to the tank. I figured the pressure would be less when it gets all the way back to the tank.
After the pump, it goes through the fuel injection rated hose that came with the pump, to the 1/4" copper tubing which will go to an inline filter, then to the fuel rail. After the fuel rail, it will go to the stock feed line for the old carb (steel), back and into the tank via that "T" fitting with the rubber hoses.
Does anyone have any idea what the fuel pressure is like on the return side after the fuel rail?

I'm getting custom length shafts from the driveshaft shop. No stockers fit.

I'll keep that in mind if they leak or need to be replaced.

This one had an inline low pressure pump right in front of the Driver's side rear wheel well.
