Vent the tank with a line leading outside the fuse.  You can either loop the vent line sufficiently enough to prevent siphon of fuel or put in a check valve so air can go in, but no fuel out.  Run the clunk line to the pump.  You can use a fuel dot for fueling, but you'll have to pinch the line in front of the fuel dot to prevent forcing fuel to (or through) the pump and into the engine (flooding).  Remember, if you go with the check valve, you'll have to have a fuel dot on that line too, for venting while fueling. A YS check valve works great for this....
