But I thought the purpose of the cooler was to cool the *return* fuel.  If it's a one-way system, how does the fuel get hot enough to need cooling?
What am I missing here? ... Jim S.

Todd,

I'm going to build a returnless system based on your design.  I found this fuel cooler at Jeg's for about $40.  Jeg's P/N 771-1009.  The finned area is 4.5 X 5 X 7/8 (inch), which I think is a little bigger than the one you made.

I'm sure it's nicer looking than anything I could build myself.  I'll post pictures of my alternator bracket one of these days to prove it.
