Default '65 GTO Fuel Return

I have a '65 GTO with a dead end 5/16" gas sending unit and feed line.

My mechanical fuel pump has an outlet for a ¼" fuel return line.

Is there any issue with running a return line to the ¼" gas tank vent tube on the filler neck, and changing the cap to a vented cap?

I ask, as there doesn't seem to be a gas tank sending unit available with a 5/16" + ¼" return nipple.

The reason is tough starting due to boiling fuel in carbs after heat soak.
