2nd Generation Dodge Reliability / Performance

I'm on my third lift pump and I noticed today that my tank is sucking in on itself. I switched back to an Oem style while my new Holley is being warrantied. This all started when I noticed that I could pull my PF gauge down to 0psi, swapped in another pump and same deal. Can I really be sucking that much fuel through 7x12s? Like enough to suck my tank in on itself?

I was casually looking for a transmission line kit and came across this fancy transmission pan. It allows you to bypass the heat exchanger, it has fittings in the pan to run engine coolant. It looks like it could eliminate the possibility of making a large milk shake should the factory exchanger fail. It's not cheap but it has me rubbing my chin and going Hmmmm.

I doubt this guy has an easy sale of his 2nd gen. https://oppositelock.kinja.com/ridiculous-diesels-most-expensive-2nd-gen-cummins-1831474565

Has anyone utilized "Spare" fuse number 16 for providing ignition signal to a tuner, etc.? Wiring diagram page 8W-12-6 shows that the fuse would be powered in both the RUN position and the Accessories position. I'm not sure if it's bad for the Adrenaline to get power while the engine isn't running; I can't imagine it'd draw more than the radio, which is the only time I really use the ACC position. Would be nice to be able to view Quad without my blasted grid heater drawing juice or the engine running. Quad recommends Fuse 9, and it differs in that it gets power in the START and RUN positions, but not ACC. Anyone see a downside to what I propose?

thought crossed my mind after falling asleep in my truck trying to stay dry one night when camping.ended up letting the truck idle for 7 hours before i woke up and realized it :doh:then i got to thinking. has anyone done any research on how many gallons per hour these things use at stock idle speed (800~rpm)? what about with high idle engaged around 1200 rpm's? also is there any danger in idling these trucks for hours at a time at factory idle speed?
