Dillema - Holley System

Dillema - Holley System
Ok, I have a dillema and am looking for some input.
I was having carb problems last week so I decided to install the 670 CFM TBI Holley Projection system I bought last year.
3 days later I've discouvered that I may have too much restriction in the return line and the fuel pump is not functioning properly.
Do I:
A - Reinstall the carb - about 3 hours work, and then start from square one (it's a 1406 edelbrock) and try to fix it
or
B - Buy a new fuel pump (god knows how much $$$) and then possibly have to have the tank fixed. Should be a bit better performance and better gas milage.
I would go with option B and try to find another used pump, but the car is my daily driver and it's clogging up my future father-in-laws garage.
Thoughts? Advice?
Thanks,
Grant

acually fuel pumps aren't THAT bad for price... depending if its an intank or not... you spent all this money on the TPI system might as well make it worth while and fix it up... then again u could probably sell it, and get a new carb

Well, I decided to forge ahead (considering that I'd have to work out the bugs in the Edelbrock anyhow) - I'll know where I'm at tonight.
Everything else is done, just waiting for the fuel tank to arrive with the new return line added.
