you can use the ie pump in the carby bikes with the open return, which is effectively no pressure unless you have a bad return system.  the fp-916 ca cycleworks sell works fine.  those pumps don't actually flow that much, but they will flow it to a high pressure.  try pumping an ie tank out with the fuel pump (externally powered), it takes much longer than i first expected.

I think the most inexpensive route is to cut down the internal fuel outlet tube so that it feeds as low as possible and then run my stock monster pump or if my carbs require an electric I will get one with appropriate psi and hide it somewhere under the tank.
I just hope I can get in there easily enough to trim the tube. It will be arriving tomorrow as well as my vernier calipers and a closer shim tool.  [clap] ;D

I think what I want is to make this as simple as possible: a hole in the top for the gas to go in, a hole in the bottom for tge gas to go out, and a vent hose.

Still need to relocate the ignition but I just HAD to throw it on there. The hinge is connected, the nose isnt.
I assume that the two wires in there coming off of the fuel sensor go to the stock ss pump right?

Yes.

If you run the stock ss pump pay attention to polarity. They'll spin the wrong way.

Those clip-ons are SOOOO low.  I feel bad for your wrist/back!

the two wires in the monster loom are for the fuel level sensor.  the ss has four wires, them and two for pump power.  or did i missunderstand the question?

I think so.

I took it as the two wires in the tank from the sensor.

He'll have to provide a feed if he goes with an internal pump.

Thats what I thought. Seeing as I am not going to run an internal pump (cutting and capping tubes internally to suit) can I just cut and seal those twowires and connect the external wiring from the fuel level to my harness? If it doesnt work I guess I can either try to hardwire it or scrap using a fuel level altogether.

As far as the bar height goes, its just fine. If it aint low, it gots ta go. Lol

If you're not going to feed voltage to them, just clip them off.

In curious how the tank attaches. The rear uses the hinge? What about the front?

Instead of cutting the in tank pipe, is it possible to run an in tank hose to a low part of the tank?

That method would reduce the gravity effect of the system and require that the pump suck fuel up the hose to the pipe.
