let me know how the fuel pickup and -10 an hose goes. Please take pictures and post them. I know I (and others I am sure) would greatly appreciate it.

You need all the fittings and a way to connect the pumps to the factory line. -8 IIRC is closer to the factory line. Also need the QD tools. Gotta figuer out how you want to turn em on. The fm100's are 1/4NPT IIRC

The fittings and all that greatly depend on how you want to hook it all up.

If you have any particular Q's feel free to call or PM me. Or talk to Mike L, he has done a few of em IIRC I havent done the PU so I am clueless there

Here's what I ended up doing. Use a single FM100 for everyday, continuous use turned on by OPS/relay. The Carter is fed raw fuel whenever I want to run it via switch in cab. there is a one-way checkvalve above the carter in the FM100 supply line that prevents the Carter from pumping in a circle when it's on. If the FM100 fails I can get home via Carter ... and I'd be up the creek if both pumps failed ...not likely.
