Single Line Fuel Pump Configuration, How do I plumb the fuel lines> Options

[whathaveidone]

Hi Everyone,

I have another 'show my ignorance' question. The project car I bought had the fuel lines replaced (which was nice), and the fuel lines attached to the engine (also great). I think the previous owner replaced the fuel lines was going to move the fuel pump to the front since the lines currently go right to the engine.

My car is pretty stripped down, with no fuel tank/pump installed. I am trying to get it to start or even sputter, but I'm concerned that I may not have the lines run correctly.

I have a 2 port fuel pump; gas in one end, out the other, then I have a Y in line connected to the 2 fuel lines that go back to the engine.

Do I need some form or return in the system? Any chance I am compressing a lot of air up near the engine?

I know I have good pressure, know I have spark, and have pulled the spark plugs a few times and they were dry every time.

Does the fuel routing sound right? If it is, any ideas on what I should look at? I believe the engine was refurbished from the look of it.

Thanks!
