Fuel Injected
If I wanted to make the change to a aftermarket fuel injection set up that requires a electric fuel pump that produces 50 psi. Could I use the existing tank (behind the seat) with a external electric fuel pump?
If so how would I deal with the fuel return line back to the tank?

Re: Fuel Injected
There are others like this one:

Re: Fuel Injected
Use an external E2000 fuel pump and the charcoal canister line for a return.

Re: Fuel Injected
Depends on where it was built. My ‘70 was built in Fremont and it had the evap system on it.

Re: Fuel Injected
Well mine had it. Don’t know why anyone would add it if it wasn’t factory.

Re: Fuel Injected
You can buy a sending unit with a return line. That's what I did with my '71.
