All right, it would help me a lot to hear what you guys have found ideal for a fuel tank/pickup system for a Holley Blue/Holley 650cfm carb/Holley Reg. fuel supply to a 351W.

I want to keep the stock tank, so I guess a sump is the easiest, what is the best cheaper&fitting way to go about this IYO's????

THX!

use the stock pickup, Disc the EFI pump and run hoses in its place.

Mallory (A Division Of Mr. Gasket) make's a DROP IN Fuel Pickup that would work great for your application. It has a 10AN Supply Line and from what I can remember an 8AN return line. I'm running one in my 408 Stang right now and it work's great with my Aeromotive Fuel Pump. Check out Mallory's website and download there quick catalogue for a view and more spec's on it.
