2 Fuel lines come out of the side of the tank, to/from rollover check valve and/or carbon cannister?
Can I plug them up?
not a good idea.

imho, run new fuel and vac. lines. if you have a manual, the diagrams will be in there. if you don't get one.

Holley says the recommended fuel pressure is 5-7 psi.
3/8" should be fine.
