Haven't pressure tested it yet, but I plan on trying it out this weekend. If you are running an LS with a returnless style intake, PM me and I'll be happy to send you my Regulator/Filter and the -an fittings to go with it. I ordered it not thinking that my fuel rail is a return style. I'll give it to you for a great deal to help a fellow board member.

But I have to let you know I'm actually running an external pump. If you look forward of the center cross member, you will see the walbro pump hiding in there. Don't make fun of my rubber hose barb to bubble flared steel lines, I got lazy and cheap! I think I got my tank on sale from brothers. Don't remember the price, but I'm leaning towards $230. Even comes with sending unit. I got the top fill. I'm going with the wood bed so the filler neck will be in the bed slats. Nice and easy.... I hope.
Mine is an 02 return style. So I appreciate the offer on the pump and filter but I can't use it either. I will look into the tank from brothers. Your setup looks good to me.
