you have to block the intank regulator if you still want to use the stock fuel pump, but let me ask why do you want to switch to a return style?

what year truck is this, because if its one of the new trucks then you have a fuel pump control module which I dont know how to get around either.

How much power do you want to make, if its a newer model truck you can use a boost a pump until it maxes out, also do the injectors before the fuel pump because you will max the stock injectors BEFORE you max the pump.
