Steve,
The filters are from Summit Racing. Model SUM-G1507. The mechanical pump has been removed. I used one way valves at the output of each pump to prevent any backflow but they may be unnecessary. The pumps themselves may take care of that. I retained the original transfer switch but added a relay as the switch has only SPST contacts. Can send a diagram if interested.

I usually install the 4070 with a by-pass hose and include a check valve in
the by-pass. The thinking here is that the 4070, due to it's internal
valving, is a bit restrictive, (a couple of psi worth), and the by-pass
hose helps with that pressure drop when the pump is not running. Just what
I do.

My experience with the Carter pump is that it is very restrictive when one
tries to pull fuel through the pump as it is vain driven. I have been using
that style pump since 1995.

I installed a P4070 once without the bypass check valve and it did not go well. It would run out of gas in the carb when I accelerated heavily and the electric pump was turned off. I added a check valve bypass and took care of the problem.
Jim K. at Applied GMC has everything that you need in one kit. He has, or at least had, one of them ready to go on his table at the GMCMI rally yesterday.

Both the Carter and the MR Gasket pumps are rotary vane type. Both work well. The Carter makes more noise, but only marginally so, and at the back of the copach you won't notice it. In thwe ratrod pickup, I notice it.
