It has a been a couple of months since I helped a guy do this conversion. One on the side for sure goes to the carb. If the other arrow is pointing in the opposite flow direction, that is your return.

He had no trouble running a stock pump through stock 4cylinder car fuel lines. His motor had flat-top pistons with ported gt-40 heads.

If you get it installed and it is not enough, you can always try a fuel log to help it out like on the pic below.

I have doubts that the Holley regulator will work. It's only rated for low PSI. When I did mine, I consulted with a local speed shop, and they convinced me the Holley may work for a while, but probably won't last very long. I ended up with a Mallory pump (return style), which is rated to 50 PSI, works great, but it's triple the cost of the Holley.
