Hi,

I am in the process of putting a honda ZC engine in my mini. The 
mini is carbureted with a mechanical fuel pump on the engine.

The honda has a high pressure pump (35-50psi depending on year 
of car with the vac hose disconnected from the regulator) in or nr 
the tank. This goes up to the fuel fuel rail which has a regulator on 
it.. the reg dumps excess fuel back to the tank to maintain the 
pressure.

I am just wondering the best way to do the fuel system. I don't 
really fancy having 50psi fuel lines floating around the length of the 
car. 

Can I have a low pressure pump nr the tank then a high pressure 
pump in the engine bay? What should I do with the return line? can 
I run this to the inlet of the high pressure pump or do I need to run 
it back to the top of the tank?
