I'm a bit confused. If you don't need or have a return line, then run it from the main feed off of the pump (electrical or mechanical) to the brass inlet at the carb. If your running a three line fuel pump at the block, just return the smaller line for return fuel back to the tank. Then keep the feed line to the carb as normal. One suggestion I like to do, get a banjo fitting for the carb inlet. It gives you options for routing and looks to dress it up with your choice of pretty fittings and lines, etc.What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?

iam sorry. i should have been more clear. i am trying to keep the engine with a clean look. I understand where the fuel lines go on the carb. iam trying to see how everybody had routed the line to the fuel pump compared to running the line from the carb over the front of the engine to the pump

well on my mustang i have an electric fuel pump installed in the tank, i run the factory line up to the firewall and from there it hits an inline filter with a thermo electric cooler, changes to steel braided line, runs up my bellhousing, and then has two brackets on the intake that keep it raised about an inch off of the manifold up to the carb and plugs in.... i'd put up a picture but my digital camera is in pieces
on my rambler it runs up to the fuel pump all the way with the stock steel line, and then runs up to the carb with a custom made stainless steel tub, looks good performs nicely(at least for a rambler )just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day

Excuse the dust, but heres how I ran mine on my vette. I am running a stock fuel pump.
Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
