Yes, They need to be as low and close to the tank as possible.

so just above the drain hole in the bulkhead should be good then I would think?? can't get any closer to my tank than that as its just on the other side of the bulkhead...lol what are you running for filters? I have the return fuel system on my engine, I know I could switch to the returnless and use the corvette filter that has the built in regulator. I know some people have run the return line to the vent line for the fuel filler. Others have tapped the sending unit hat for a return, that maybe the way I go.

I'm running a universal 3/8 filter before the pump and an aftermarket EFI filter just before the fuel rail.
My Skater tanks have return ports already. I have seen a fitting that goes in you filler hose, just cut it in two and splice it back together with the fitting that has a return port.

Of my setup or that splice return thing?
I don't have pics of either, but I dig some up on the internet of the return thing, it might be a little while before I can get a pic of my setup.

Hey did you have to run the flywheel spacer to keep the coupler spaced out correctly? Or did you just bolt it up and go?

Hi, I haven't really done anything to speak of to my boat except drive the crap out of it.
A buddy of mine got a boat that we've been working on and just haven't had much time for mine.

There's still a lot of things I want to do to it but it's going to be an all or nothing deal when I start any of them.

... and to be honest, it's been really nice to just enjoy the boat without working on it all the time.

So you still have the stock valve train in the 5.3's and no issues yet? How many rpm do you run them up to?

Thanks,
