Ok so some thoughts please, So im planning on getting a fuel cell in back and would like to put a facet fuel pump on her with the SU, what about the return as the manual pump has a return how will this work with electric pump ??

You don't need a return with an electric pump.

Personally I'd just keep the mechanical pump, there's no need to run an electric pump unless you have an engine that was originally spi so it doesn't have a mechanical fuel pump.

Mechanical pumps are more reliable and not noisy.

Thanks for that I will do that then I have now a couple of options there are some tidy alloy fuel tanks the only thing which might cause me is the return as it will be a bit higher on the other tank hopefully the return will suffice

Will be fine, I've ran a few tanks in the back, some of which had returns that are quite high up.
