I am using two 780 cfm's on my tunnel wedge with 760 hp and havent had any fuel problems. The electric pumps never worked and I have yet to fix them so still running on mechanical.I don't think you will run out of fuel .I think the most impoertant thing is float levels being correct for that.
Like you I wanted to stick with an original look ,you could always use the black nylon , the silver/nickle russell an fittings and paint the log .
