Do you have any photos of your tank set ups?
I don't mind the idea of the fuel cell or bigger tank but don't really want to do major body mods to the floor or lose what little boot space I have.

I have an mpi tank and replica s rh tank modded with return. Mpi with new pump in it and inline commodore pump feeding the 3 injectors in the supercharger. Return comes back and is split to go back into both tanks.

Why did you run the return line into the RH tank too? Shouldn't the equalising pipe sort that out?

I guess it would depend on how much fuel is getting pumped back through the return. I read on a build thread a few years ago think it might have been simon who had dramas with both tanks were full the return overfilling the lh tank. I split it to go back to both to be on the safe side and not had a problem with 2 full tanks.
