Wonder if the entire return volume is increased? Would think it would be. Probably not a issue for you but running return threw a cooler would be beneficial to us desert dwellers https://tenor.com/view/esselcius-bonalkset-gif-21288908

Scott with your skill set a return bypass for the Fass could be teed off to the factory return line could be fabricated.

They are real clear they do not want to use engine return line. But our tanks do have three return lines. Engine, generator and aqua hot. Aqua hot shared return has my interest. 20/20 hind site I would of added a additional bung when I had the tank out. Also when they speak of a return they are using the overboard vent and dont want to have raw fuel pushed out the vent. Its also in the center of the tank and unreachable on my coach.

On second thought just a fuel cooler on the Fass return.

Yup, that insures both cooler fuel and zero chance of back pressure on engine's fuel system.

Yes could easily put in the front axle area between frame rails.

I installed a FASS 165-gallon system on my 1999 8.3 and used the 1/2 line am getting high pressure at the pump 22-24 PSI, I disconnected the return line at the pump a ran a hose directly to a 5 gal bucket pressure dropped down to 19 psi so I think I will run a 5/8" return line instead of the 1/2" Have a return in the filler neck that have to be adapted to the 5/8" noticed that where the 1/2" goes into the filler neck it goes down to about 3/8"

I have tried out the new system going to Whistler and I noticed a increase of turbo
pressure.
