another EFI qquestion about pumps.

The new motor is running great but already tired of the quick fuel carb. Should have to screw with it so much on a mild build.
I think I read all the EFI post here but want to ask because some of them were older.
Holley seems to have in tank pump kits that fit in the OEM sender hole but i do not see one for our trucks, Jeeps, camaros, mustangs etc all have them.

I want an in tank pump and would like to use the original opening. Anyone modify the OEM sender to hold an electric pump. Anyone have a part number for an in tank set up like the sniper in tank?

I was thinking of marrying the two tanks together with a few bulkhead fittings and running the electric pump from the front tank

I think there should be a little more to it than that. For example, my tank also has a baffle, so that the pump doesn’t run dry if the fuel level is low. Also your pump needs to accommodate a send and return line from the FI, so usually the sender opening won’t work. Check the information on the Tanks Inc. website.

See Post #17.
A few years ago I read where someone attached an efi pump to their pressure feed tube on the sending unit but for the life of me I can't find that thread. Above is my post with my Coyote. My 2 cents is to get the carb advice to make it work. EFI can be insane expensive. The cheapest route would be to get the EFI underhood sump that both of your tanks can fill, this way you can keep your tanks stock and not need the aftermarket tanks with internal EFI baffles that alleviate pump cavitation.

this truck is not a DD and definitely does not need EFI. I went with a new QF 600 on this build for simplicity and there really is not reason to have to screw with air bleeds on this build. I am not trying to eek out hundredth of a second. I have AEDs on other build and they are superb. But only offered in a 4150 style and a double pump. I sort of wanted the single fuel line and vac secondary.

I might try an older 600 i have laying around and see what it does and save the coin for something else.
