On the DESCENDANT xB we run 2) BOSCH 255L pumps with the OEM tank. All we did was gut the OEM Pump housing added a external lines. So far it works awesome, I'll try to post up some pictures in the next couple days.

Nice job Cory! How hard would it be to just replace the stock pump with a single Walbro 255? I don't need a return system, I just want to make sure my fuel pressure doesn't drop off.

Hey Cory, why won't a Walbro fit the stock assembly with some mods? From the photos you posted it looks possible.

I assume then that there is something unique about our pump vs the TC's which is simply a bit shorter than the Walbro 255. I hate to waste $100 but maybe I should buy a used pump and modify it. I hate to go to a return setup when all I want is to be sure that my pressure isn't dropping off at peak flow.

Thanks for the offer Cory. I'll let ya know if I decide to go that route.
