Default Fuel cell

There will be two 3 way valves one for return and one to direct fuel from either tank to to engine. Wires are thhn wire ties are in most fuel tanks from the factory all auto makers submerge crimp and soilder on fittings since the early 1980's. I have never liked it but it works the stock lightning fuel plugs are bare fittings inside a snap plug. The return line has a tube that directs the fuel to within 1/2" from the bottom of the tank to prevent foaming of the fuel.This system will have its own fuel filter which is a mallory canister style, two pumps feed in one line out. We will add pitcures as we go working on nice brackets for the valves switches and rear fuel gauge. Also this design is totally sealed so no fumes will get under that bed cover the vent which has a roll over ball in it, i'm venting it right back into the stock fuel tank and charchol canister system. more fun to follow Mitch
