Look into running your system as a 'Herbie'
The 1" will be your main drain
The 3/4" will be your emergency drain

Then you need to plumb over the back for your returns

Look through the first, I don't know, maybe 10 pages, of my build thread for some pics etc

Link is my sig

I'd suggest you keep your questions specific to your thread

If you have other issues, such as sump, start another thread

As for your plumbing, it's not that difficult
There is tons of help here
Keep reading and waiting for responses for help

I gotta run
Hope others will chime in to help you
