Okay I admit I'm little confused on this system.  I got the car completely torn apart and i have no reference on what is correct or not .

This is what I have:  the tank with the one nipple, have the complete fuel vent line kit that is on the passenger side in the trunk , and preformed fuel line that runs from the tank to the pump.

question's: - No return line? just a single line from tank to  pump? And the vent lines, one goes to the tank and the other just vents in the frame rail???

thanks a million for any help

The only engines that use a return line on a 1970 Cuda are 440-4, 440+6, and Hemi. All others had one main fuel line front to back that's it. Your one nipple goes in the trunk, up the wheel well, then back out to dump in the frame rail....that's it. It sounds like you have everything you need. :twothumbsup:

That's not a 70 gas tank in your car, it's been swapped out at one time  :alan2cents:

That could be a 1970 tank, from a California car. That's what mine came with, originally.
