couple of things, make sure carbs are for BLOW thru, not just blower carbs..not the same !! put a switch on the dash to be able to turn off fuel pump as a override(trust me) also make sure you run a boost gauge and a fuel pressure(electric) in the dash...you will need to do a return to the tank...can use a diesel fuel tank sending unit that has the fitting already there...I have done all these...

Talked to PC, they said there is no difference between running the carb in the box or the hat.. As it seems, I am not going to spend 5$$$ on a mechanical pump, as most of them are good to about 8psi, I will be well above that. So looks like it will be a electric pump.. Not thrilled about it, but if it is the only thing that will work, then what the hell...
