Default Aeromotive Pump return line or not ????

I have the Aeromotive fuel pump that is bigger than the A1000 ? Make around 600hp with spray,i have -8 line for feed line to regulator at the aeromotive fuelrail,goes through that rail,then line running in front to the other rail,then through the other rail -8 return to the tank.Is this right ? Or should i cap the end of the fuel rail for no return,i feel like the fuel is making the loop so fast that some of the injectors may not be getting fuel,since its the same size line feed and return,should i change this or no ???

Check the Aeromotive site. They have the systems laid out.
If I'm reading your post correctly, you have the reg in the wrong position.
40M filter >Pump> 10M filter> rails> reg> tank.
You can either Y off and feed both rails, then run the other ends of the rails to the 2 ports on the reg, then run from the bottom of the reg back to the tank.
Or, you can feed 1 rail, tie the other rail to the first, then run the remaining rail end to 1 side of the reg, and then run the return as above.
If you do that, you'll need to plug 1 side of the reg.
Same size lines have nothing to do w/ the supply to the injs.. Only case in which it would, is if the return is too small.

you can choose to run the FPR at any location post pump you choose but the correct way to build the system is:

pre filter, pump, post filter, Y block, one feed to EACH rail, each rail exits and goes to regulator, then the return t the tank.
