Dan, Your diagram looks good. I would suggest that you add a pair of check valves at the 1/8" Tee. The way you have the system plumed a leak in either side will allow fuel to run overboard rather than to the carb. If you install check valves at the carb then you can operate on one side regardless of the integrity of the opposite side fuel path.

The Pumps go on the firewall and I really could not figure out what mix and match of parts to put together to get the fuel from a 3/8 pipe fitting on my filter to a 1/8 pipe fitting on my carburetor. The goal was to never allow the volume to increase and have it split into the pumps and then brought back together at the carb. Well, apparently, no one on the net has done this, so I had to go elsewhere for help. They have very nice people at Wicks. Has anyone ever told you that before? I sent their customer support my request. Later that day, I was called by Janet to get some clarification. Later that week, I received a request for my fax number because David, of Wicks, had come up with a drawing for me. Well, I changed it a little and put it on paper with pictures and part numbers and passed it back by David. He saw no problem with it, so here it is. http://kr-builder.org/FirewallForward/index.html First PIC on the page, but you will need to click on it to be able to really see it. Now see if you can go in at the filter and find your way to the Ellison. "There is a time for building and a time for GOING TO THE GATHERING, and the time for building has long since expired."
