Paxton Supercharger!
I ran 3/8 fuel line with a new 3/8 sender from Vans Auto with the stock pick up. I drilled and tapped a hole in the sender then installed a 3/8 barbed fitting with jb weld as a thread sealer "no leaks" for the return line. This setup works just fine but the ideal setup would be a new baffled gas tank with an in tank pump, I believe someone is making this setup for A-bodies but it is big $$$$ and you know how cheap us A-body guys are! Hahaha

I had a problem; it was a 120-mile round-trip from my front door to the strip, and my car needed 110-octane fuel to run its best at the drags, but would run okay on 93 octane driving to and from the race.
What to do????
The only solution that seemed to make any sense to me was to build TWO complete, autonomous fuel systems; one for the strip; one for getting there, and daily driving.
A LOT of push-on hose, A-N fitting$, and head-scratching, later, I had my dual-fuel system.
By turning a few valves, and flipping a couple of electrical switches, I could use either fuel supply, run through either of two pumps and filters, and the entire fuel switch-over only took about two minutes.
Looks like a plumber's nightmare, but it works for me; 110-octane in the fuel cell for racing (10-pounds of boost on a Vortech-inspired 360 Magnum), or putting down the hi-way at 60mph, on pump gas.
I just have to remind myself not to let that boost gauge needle sweep over into non-vacuum territory, when I have the 93-octane mouse milk flowing...
The GOOD fuel pump is in the trunk; the Holley Blue (street) pump is under the car, by the rear axle. That's it behind the air bag...
