Rounding up my parts I called the Carter Tech guy to get his thoughts. I told him I was planing on removing the socks and selector valve and using a Cadillac fuel filter in front of each tank P4070 pump and a check valve at each pump outlet(no mechanical pump). He said that would work but suggested a 404 501 HP regulator at the Carburetor with a return line to the tanks. I said but the pumps are already regulated at 5 lbs? He said if the pumps start to sense vapor in the fuel the pressure can rise and over power the carb float valve? A new one on me? He also said the pumps will run cooler with the bypass so I said won't the fuel temperature rise with all that circulating fuel he didn't comment. I also saw an article that suggested it was better to use a roll over switch from a ford crown Victoria rather then wire the pumps thru an oil pressure switch? Anybody want to comment on these thoughts. I don't want in tank pumps if I can get the external ones to work OK. Besides I have 3 P7o's
