Default swapping from walbro to ractronix pump need help

i am swapping from a walbro pump to a racetronix hot wire kit. my question is. the walbro didnt use the small plastic line so ive either hid it from myself or threw it away. so is it needed or do i need to find one?

You should replace the venturi in the sender as originally provided. I hope you did not cut up the factory bucket when you put in the generic fit pump.

Check junk yards for a replacement.

Hijack. I installed a walbro in my 02 Z28 and cut up the bucket, now the pump is dead and I was going to do a racetronix for replacement. Can I still use the cut up bucket or do I need a new "unmodded" one?

You need a new unmodded bucket for it to function correctly.
