Cant do it without the aftermarket lift pump since the cp3 contains the lp and is pulling the fuel through the system.

The fuel is being pulled throught the lines creating vaccum, not pressure

Well damn. What about location for oil pressure sending unit. If I can't use my fuel gauge, then I need a gauge to fill its spot...
