While not an SPF, I recently converted my car from a carb to Dynatek EFI. I ran an Aeromotive 11203 LP pump with the carb set-up and am running an Aeromotive A1000 HP pump with the FI. They recommend to run the A1000 inlet at or below the level of the fuel tank feed. Since I was unable to do that due to room constraints, I am feeding a swirl pot mounted in the trunk with the 11203. The pot that I found on e-bay, has a 8an inlet on top, a 10an outlet on bottom, and (2) 6an inlets on the side. One for the return from the engine bay and one to return fuel to the tank. So basically the LP pump just keeps the pot full and returns any excess to the tank. There are pics in gallery of the setup. I installed dash gauges to monitor both the pressure at the engine and the LP pump pressure, plus visual gauges on the pot to monitor pressure drop. The HP pump maintains 50 psi with no variation, while the LP pumps runs 3.5 psi with the tank full, but will slowly drop, with the tank level, down to 1.5 psi when empty. However the drop on LP pump pressure does not affect the HP pressure when the tank is low.
