When I converted our T3 to carbs, I plugged the return line, mounted 
another electric fuel pump in the stock location, kept the wiring and relay 
in place, then used the little "Y" piece that was there as a splitter, and 
ran fuel down both lines through the pan, one for each carb.  Seemed the 
cleanest/easiest way to go about things, especially since I already had the 
electric pump sitting around.  Interestingly, the blockoff plate I used on 
the engine is cast aluminum with the VW emblem designed into it ... 
possibly a factory part?  I don't even remember where I got it...

FWIW, YMMV, standard disclaimers apply, yada yada yada. =)
