    you can buy mechanical pumps that feed nascar engines how much steam is your engine making . i sumped stock tanks for new fuel pump setups the lowest part of fuel line close to tank leve with sump pickup point is were i allways mounted the pumps i used many of them . many fuel pumps do not self prime and will wear out faster . if street use or race a return or by pass is a good way to go as helps keep the pump from dead heading the pump and keeps fuel pump cool here a photo of my gto with a sump in a stock tank feeds over 750hp just fine but no power adders. the other port is for that.... capped off. on the tank i allway ran a filter first the fuel pump on the gto you can not see it is a line russell have used many marine filters setups but i open up the feed in and out ports to 3/8 npt or bigger
