i'm doing the same setup but i'm goin -10 from the sump to the pump and -8 from the filter forward and -6 for the return
i don't think the stock line will be efficient

I think the Stock feed is slightly smaller then a -6an I really dont see the issue in that
and i am going -10 all the way up

wouldn't you want to put a line in the tank to return the gas directly to the sump?

im useing my stock feed as the return.. some cars like a ek there is no way to connect a steel braided line to it cuase theres no place for a fitting unless u weld one on there. so its easyer to use the stock feed as the return and the stock feed is just abou the same size as -6 u will be fine doing it that way..

I dont think so it would cause a turbulance in the sump possibly makeing air pockets..
