I think it is a great idea. Do you think you might still get air on the line if the main fuel tank bung becomes un covered or would there be enough in the sub tank to stop this from hapining

I have an '03 with the return system. I added an inline 255LPH Walbro. But even so, with less than 1/4 tank, the fuel will be forced to the back of the tank on a WOT run and starve the in-tank fuel pump. The bucket does not hold enough fuel to feed mine for a 12 second run if the tank is < 1/4 full. It will run dry before I reach the top of 2nd gear and miss like a ****.

That's the idea, I think I read somewhere that a 500 HP engine uses about a gallon per minute. A quart should supply it for about 15 seconds, if you are going full throttle in reverse, or somehow using full power and braking while going forward(?).
If you are braking with your foot off of the gas, a quart will be plenty.
