Carter/weber conversion, fuel return Y-- typical?

[Bratastick]

I'm converting from a Carter to a weber. I have most of it complete just hooking up the fuel lines now. In looking back through Weber conversion threads,most when upgrading from the Hitachi use the fuel inlet off their old carb which has the built in Y for fuel return. The Carter has a completely different fuel hook up, but it does have a Y on then end. My plan was to cut the Y out and use it. When cleaning it up I noticed the return side is blocked up with only a tiny return hole, almost a pin hole size return. Is this also how the Hitachi works? I would have thought it should have a full "bore" return. Just making sure before I drill this one out to full bore.

You don't need a fuel return with a Weber. Just make sure you have 3-5 psi going to the carb. Forget about the return. Just cap it at the firewall.

I know where to get y fittings that scew into the weber if you need one. I capped my fuel the first time, flooded it constantly with a 5psi max pump at 30 gallon per hour. Use a 2-3.5 psi at 24-28 gallon per hour pump. That will keep you in good shape. Webers like flow not pressure
