the fuel return isnt really a major problem

use a 6 port motor driven valve (avail from j c whitney) its driven from 1
pos to the other pos by a motor not a solinoid it has limit switches to
light an indicitor to let you know that it did in fact reach the pos you
wanted.

then as a safety feature you install a carter rotary fuel pump on the
firewall it runs both directions so transfering fuel from tank to tank
incase the fuel selector valve doesnt move you can move the fuel to the
working tank.

you will then mount your fuel pumps in the fuel tanks, one pump in each
tank.

fuel is non conductive, so are our fuel tanks. this is what all most all new
cars have in them.

this way vapor lock is eliminated and redundency for fuel pump supply is
maintained.
