Asmodeus, you are running a barracuda too? That is the exact pump I am hooking up, and my intake looks identical to yours, with the horizontal cuts in it.

How have you arranged your return lines? I setup a return manifold with 7, 1/2 inch t's and loclines.

The only thing I would be careful with when running it in an overflow is sometimes bubbles from the falling water and foam end up in the overflow and once they go through a pump on a closed loop, you end up with thousands of micro bubbles. JMO

And carefull you dont run your overflow dry because you dont have enough linear lenght of overflow to keep up.
