I bought it all assembled for $300 shipped. It was kind of a no brainer. I was going to stick it in my 93, but now it is going in the Formula. Many, many years down the road the plan is 1300rwhp. Right now I just want to use what I have, spend minimal money to get it running, but at the same time set things up so I don't have to the same tasks 2-3 times later on. The fuel system is one of those things.

Btw lose that rubber hose.. I've had those hoses split apart in the tank and cause a massive drop in rail pressure.. That's why you see mine in steel braided...

Scary ****...

Regular rubber fuel injection line will do exactly what you described. There is actually a rubber hose built just for this application. Gates is the only company I'm aware of who makes submersible rubber hose, and they are proud of their achievement. The second option is using the OEM type "soda straw" looking plastic line. I'm using both in two different cars and they have been running great for a long time. The OEM stuff is much cheaper but I can't find the link on where to buy it right now.
