Easy injection return line solution available?

Chaps

I'm likely moving from a carbed set-up to a fuel injected one, which in itself is not that earth shattering....

My question relates to fitting a return fuel line to the tank. I seem to recall there was a drill and fit attachment but I'm struggling to find it? Anyone know where I could get one of these, or indeed if they actually exists?

Thanks!

I'm going to use the vent connection for the return, and use the push in connector for the vent

Noted with interest, just the job for what you need

I cant believe that that is acceptable for aircraft though!

"can be used top and bottom of the fuel tank, for a sight tube"

My only concern would be that aircraft don't tend to use alcoholic fuels, but those fittings have just got to be a good quality nitrile if they're used on aircraft.

The alternative to a fuel return line to the tank would be a dead head affair, just route the regulator spill to the fuel pump feed line.
