The other issue with the 2 -8's is with a high volume pump there is the chance for it to run one of the 8's dry and cavitate the pump or even lean the engine out.
I was afraid of messing with the new fuel cell cause it has foam and all that in it. The fuel cell is sumped so it shouldn't ever run dry and its 20 gallon. If I'm wrong let me know, I would rather make adjustments now then after I tear up something.
