[DeTomaso] Fuel tank return for electric fuel pumps?

Not sure if you’re referring to my setup, sounds like it. The banjo bolt fit into the tank drain hole, so no drilling necessary. The only issue was that the late aluminum tank had a tapered thread hit the drain and the banjo bolt had straight threads. With copper washers on each side of the banjo it mounted snug and tight.

Have been running this setup for 17 years now.

Cheers,
Thomas
