Default how do I convert returnless system?

Hi

Can anyone suggest how I can add a return line to a returnless fuel system? Can I use the corvette fuel filter, since it has a return line on the filter. That way I don't have to modify the fuel rail. I am planning to run meagasquirt efi.

Thanks

Using a Corvette fuel filter as the regulator will only replace the tank mounted regulator with one in the filter. This serves no benefit if the filter remains at the rear of the car. You would need to mount the filter at the engine to see any benefit with this setup.

For best results, you should run an adjustable regulator at the front with modified or aftermarket rails.
