IMO its about as good as you can get with a fuel system. The only thing I could see to really improve on this would be to use a gear or belt driven fuel pump. That would change a few things but as far as using an electric fuel pump IMO this setup addresses most everything I could think of. It removes air. Has the very best water fuel sep and awesome pre-pump filtration. With this dual pump setup each pump is only being asked to do one primary thing which is most cases is why we tend to fry pumps when used in a single pump config. It keep the hi pump cool and allow addresses any fuel sloshing issues at low tank. Fuel is brought back down to as close to ambient temp as possible which gives much better pump and injector lubrication performance as well as more BTU of energy per vol of fuel injected. It removes air and vapor. The routing causes the least formation of air or vapor. Routing into the rear inspection ports to standard 6an fitting not the sharp 90 turn of a banjo fitting. It then leaves via the smaller standard front ports. This will keep and allow the fuel pressure to remain the most consistent IMO. Final filtration is via a Donaldson 3mic that is a true 3mic 99% not nominal. Using a V10 trans cooler as the fuel cooler. Need to add a bypass loop just in case for winter time although I doubt here it will be needed. If I was way north or in AK then for sure. The last plan for the system is to relocate it. I am relocating the batteries to the passenger frame rail. I will then move the whole fuel system to the engine bay. That is minus the lift pump as its best location is close to the tank. This will keep the system secure from curious people. Will make service easy. Will almost eliminate any possibility of damage during off-road use. [/QUOTE]
