Preparing to install the CFR 3/8" SS fuel line in my carbed '73. I will only be installing the single line for the carbs, so what is the best way to terminate the return line nipple coming off the gas tank? Do I tie both nipples together with a "Y" or "T" connector, or is it best to just block off the return nipple? Either way, what hardware works best?

I cut the side out of an empty qurt oil container, its made from hdpe which resists hydrocarbons. remove the large nut that retains the nipple and use the backside as a template and cut a piece of hdpe and put it between the tank and nipple and tighten the nut back on. It has been OK for the last two years with no leak.
