Default New dual pump set up

So i dropped the tank and redid my dual pump set up. Here is what i ended up coming up with. The depth of the tank on SUVs i believe is quite a bit shorter than the pick up trucks. So i only had 8 1/2" to work with, which isnt much. I used a racetronix billet "Y" block and cut the top down and welded a male AN fitting on the top. I welded a male/male AN fitting in the top of top hat then just used a female/female AN union to connect the pumps to the hat. So there is no hoses and the AN fittings actually hold it in place. Let me know what you think or have any suggestions before i throw this tank bank in. I wanted to keep the "bucket" for fuel starvation on the pumps but just couldnt make it work so i gutted it and have 3/4 of the outer bucket left and is basically is only there to hold to fuel level float. I have also gotten a stainless clamp to hold the 2 pumps together.

Nice work. If you could make a bucket with swinging doors that would keep fuel in it, it would be even better.

I might have to do the same but with just one pump for my application...

Im assuming in that situation i wont need the billet Y block and AN fitting since i might use just a rubber tube...
