Im looking for suggestions on how to plumb the fuel lines for the PMO carbs. Where should the regulator be mounted?

Or...use a fuel pump that pumps at 3-4 psi and avoid a high pressure fuel system and regulator.

We did that first. Mounted in the front, it wouldn't produce enough pressure to move the gauge needle. Switched it to a single in / single out DJet pump and now we have appropriate pressure at the carbs.

No kinked lines, SS supply and return.

Want a 3.5 psig pump that was run for a total of 15 minutes?
