I was discussing this fuel line setup with a buddy and wanted to hear your thoughts. We're looking at using an efi tank and oem efi in-tank pump for carb application.
Everyone talks about doing an efi-to-carb swap using the aeromotive regulator, which I believe is around $300+. I'm not doing an efi-to-carb swap, but I do have a new efi tank and extra pump in my stash. The aeromotive regulator will regulate the high pressure down to carb level. My thought is that setting up the fuel lines in a way that doesn't restrict the flow enough to build that much pressure should eliminate the need for a special regulator. I'll be running new lines anyway, so no skin off my back. Basically, my idea is to create a loop of fuel line going to the engine bay and back to the tank. Although the efi pump is capable of high psi, the open looped line will only allow a certain amount (should be lower) psi. From that loop, install a "T" fitting and run that through a basic regulator and then to carb. Here's a super detailed, very professional diagram:
