Default In-tank FPR block off - part #?

I'm looking to block off the in tank regulator and just run off of the one I've got at the rail. Do we use the same plug as the corvettes ?

Why don't you remove the regulator assembly, tap the return line port on the bucket with a 1/4"-18 NPT tap, and thread a 45 degree, 3/8" (10mm equivalent) barb fitting into it? You'll need a foot of

, a couple of hose clamps, a

, and a AD44002 3/8" hose barb:

See Philistine's "pig in slop" thread on the Cadillac Forums for detailed information.
