let me refrase my question.. i'm wondering if the pump will burn up if i don't have the return line hooked up.. or do i need to run a bypass style reg.?

This is a common swap. You want a return style regulator its not needed but but will let the electric pump live alot longer. $60 now for the regulator or $80.00 for a new pump and $60.00 more for the regualtor you should have used in the first place. 12803BP is the holley number for the correct regulator. They sell cheap brand units just make sure there similiar in specs.
