With the electric pump installed at the front of the car (where the fuel tank is), the one in the engine bay has been temporarily bypassed. I've connected a hose between the inlet and outlet to prevent any fuel caught in the pump from being sprayed everywhere. If I stick with an electric pump full time obviously I'll trim and reroute these lines, but this will do nicely for testing purposes.
