Picked Carb, some help on the fuel system?
My uncle decided on the Avenger 770 for the 429. I haven't ordered just because I don't want to be placing multiple orders if I can help it. i want to get everything else I need same time.
Let me explain what I think goes on between tank and carb and help if I'm off, then help me figure out what I need to get. We are taking the cab tank out and putting one behind the cab in the bed, I am ordering it today.
fuel line from gas tank - fuel filter - fuel pump (mechanical on there now) - regulator - carburetor.
Now, it looks like it has a little in line regulator on there now, at least there is something in line between the pump and the carb and I'm guessing that is it.
I am wondering if other than braided fuel line, which is what Rick wants in there, I should get a new regulator (since right now I have no idea what the one in there is) and should I consider changing over to a fuel pump that has a seperate return? I saw on MuscleCar where they did this and ran a return line to the tank to keep the pump from getting hot. good idea or not worth doing?
Thanks all, I appreciate the help.

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
