With out that return line when your float needle is closed the electric fuel pump will dead head and eventually burn out the pump motor..
This was a problem on the forum a few years ago.and I mentioned that the addition of a return line would eliminate the burning out of the fuel pump..I think three pumps met their maker before a return line was installed..I think anyway..Memory plays tricks some times..

Bendix had a shuttle (piston moved by mag field) came in both 6 and 12 volt was far better than the motor type it was design not to over preasure the float and yet could put out enough fuel flow to handle 350 cubic engine on big 4 barrel carb at full throttle. I'll go take a picture and try to find a source.
