The sock is inside the bucket. It has one inlet. I haven't let the fuel run that low yet, but there is no reason that the pump should suck air, all the check or flap valves in the bucket are operational.

My twin in-tank setup has both socks outside the bucket, flat against the tank bottom. Food for thought. I'm very happy with it so far.

FWIW. I have the stock in tank. Never touched. The inline that came with the Magna kit. 2-3 years now. Only time I drop fuel pressure is 1/4 tank or less. 60# injectors sitting on the work bench waiting for me to install. If either pump fails they will be replaced with the same.

Those instructions are for a returnless system, our bucket is different.

Unfortunately no, I don't have any pics. It's a Racetronix twin in-tank setup. The bucket was cut up significantly to fit two pumps inside, but both of the socks were outside the bucket and resting against the bottom of the fuel tank. It came with a plug and play harness and a hobbes pressure switch to turn the second pump on at 4 psi. It is 1000+ hp compatible supposedly. I have 96# injectors, and with my 408 at 15 psi I see almost 70psi fuel pressure and a max injector duty cycle of around 60%. Racetronix may have more info they can give you if you get in touch with them directly.
