Just my $0.02; nearing completion on my restoration, and I am going to run a carb to start with, then plan to go EFI. I made an in-tank fuel pump and return assembly. It mounts in the stock location, and is removable through the quarter window opening. Carb will take fuel from the return line while the in tank pump is unused. Later will re-configure for EFI. Here is a photo:
Thanks UFO-LOW that is definitely an option for me now.
That’s a great idea to have dual capability for carb or EFI, via the return.
Good thinking!

I looked into it several years ago. I believe it does what they say it does. An engineer friend was impressed by its performance. That said, due to the shape of the Pantera gas tank it probably isn’t worth the expense, just my 2 cents. If I remember correctly they do sell small sizes which might help a little. They are probably most beneficial when used in larger flat tanks. I don’t recall its life expectancy but I suggest checking that out before considering using it in a street car, especially a Pantera since replacing it is likely difficult.
Fuel tank foam doesn't work well with swinging arm fluid senders. A deep tank with a long swinging arm makes it even worse 'cause of the large space you need to leave clear.
