    Yeah, I wanted the bowl in the tank. I had been running the stock 85 tanks (no bowl) with the TBI and it would die if I stopped to quickly with anything less than 1/4 tank of fuel.

    I'm using ACDelco EP-381 pumps (FE0114 - Electric Fuel Pump $69 each), they've are giving me right at 58 psi.

    I ordered FI rated 5/16" hose for the return lines, and Summit's -6 hose for the pressure side. FI rated clamps on all the tank and valve connections, and Summit's Snap-Tite AN fittings on the Vette filter/regulator and fuel rail.

    It's been working perfect.
