I am using the original fuel outlet, with a pre- filter, then the common Bosch 070 (VL Commodore) EFI pump which is pretty quiet, then a Ryco Z168 EFI
fuel filter. The return I have run through one of the two breather lines for the original tank. Been no problems for 9 years

Hi Rhys, are you just running the tank outlet straight to the pump?
if you ran a surge tank with a lift pump the stock outlets are fine but just gravity flow into the pump the stock outlet is a bit restrictive and you
may find under hard acceleration/load or during heavy cornering that you get a bit of fuel surge.
