i opened the overflow valve completely, and set the pump valve to a point in which i know the overflow has no problem keeping up. I then closed the overflow valve just slightly to bring the exit chamber water level just over the baffle and it seems to be holding. exit and intake of the overflow are also whisper quiet. The intake is just beneath the water and isnt picking up any air or bubbles from the surface. I guess ill try it like this for 24hrs and hope the levels dont change. (im running an ATO in the sump)
