Don: That was my next question. I went out in the field today and got a tank and brought it in the shop and looked it over very close after i dug out the starling nest inside. Took the pickup unit out for observation and as you stated. Even if you use a larger line one would only be able to supply as much fuel as the smallest part of the system would flow. The float for the sending unit is attached to the fuel line which runs through the plate. I guess one could remove the 5/16 line and drill it out and solder a larger one in its place? What's the fix here? Someone stated back up the post that he thought the hemis came with the 5/16 line. Any foundation for that? My 440 should run in the 500 plus HP. Let me know gues as we should crank this turkey this week. I like the coat hanger trick. Thanks
