LS swap fuel line questions

[LSXCHEVY]

removing old 350... freshly rebuilt all iron 2000 LQ4...bearings, turned crank, rings, cam bearings, cam, etc...as of now cleaning engine bay...any thoughts on what to do with the return line to the tank from the old charcoal unit?

Are you running a return or returnless system on the LS motor?  2000 is return system.  The canister stuff is useless.

return less....running a carb...cant i just plug the line for later, in case i convert to FI?

How are you planning to get fuel to the carb?  If you are using an electric pump (which you have to) you will need a way to return the excess from the regulator.

tank...filter..holley blue pump...regulator...7psi...i have had this same fuel system on my old 350, should i have ran i return line from the regulator?

I generally run a return as it doesn't deadhead.  It keeps circulating the fuel keeping it cooler and should make it last longer.
