You might want to reverse those lines at the liquid separator. The lines from the liquid source should be connected to the bottom fitting on the separator....otherwise the fuel will flow into and block the venting to the charcoal canister causing your fuel to spit back out of the filler neck while fueling...and you will spend far too much time (15 min or so) filling your tanks.

Update: tanks are done, installed new lock rings and o rings, pressure tested with soapy water all good. Tank straps mounted (plasti-dip on the tank side and grade 8 button head hex bolts and lock nuts). I assembled my pumps, filters and check valves. I was hoping to get the pumps closer to the floor, but after fiddling for too long, I accepted the fact that they will be a wee bit exposed. The torsion bar yoke is still far lower than the filter. I'm not too worried. the vapor lines were challenging.
