trying to see what fittings you used for the connectors. How thick was the top of the pump housing when you drilled through and put fittings in. I planned on just using barbed push locks but not sure how much room i have to work with

sorry for all the questions, just wanna make sure i have all my ducks in a row when i pull my tank

It was pretty thin. Like sheetmetal thickness. Maybe 16-18g

ok thats what it kind of looked like, was your truck originally a returnless setup? Its hard to tell but does your return line hook to something down by the fuel pumps?

Yea it was returnless. The return feeds back down to the original location where the bypass regulator in the tank sat.

If i ever go back and swap out one of the pumps for a walbro 450 i am gonna order this fitting. It would work perfectly with the -8 bulkhead i have for the feed.
