I am a firm believer in the parallel fuel pump installation over the series method


A "belt and suspenders" solution, but I can't really argue with it if you want to go that route.

I have installed hundreds of electric serial pusher pump installations on Pontiacs back in the day (1970s) and NEVER had a failure where the mechanical fuel pump failed in such a way that it filled the crankcase with gasoline or blew gas out all over the road. The Pontiac mechanical fuel pump is very similar to the Packard one. The Pontiac installations were on blow-thru Turbos where the fuel pressure goes up to maybe 20psi. No failures.

So, take this advice for what it's worth.
