Aeromotive foam or going without?

[IDS_Bill]

Hey Everyone,

I have a 67 Camaro with an LS3 (@blueshift_camaro on IG) and I was chasing an issue where it wouldn’t rev past 4000 at WOT. I finally narrowed it down the to the fuel pressure dropping to 19psi at WOT. I pulled the tank and aeromotive’s yellow tank foam had completely disintegrated and clogged my fuel system with yellow “sand”. Long story short, they gave in and sent me a service kit with a new foam insert for free but, I have to say, I am not excited about putting it back in. I understand that it keeps the fuel from sloshing and the pump from cavitation or losing prime under hard acceleration with a low tank but I am really not liking the fact that I might have to do this again someday.



Has anyone left the foam out of their tank? I’m wondering how it worked out. I have the stock style 340 stealth tank kit so there is no baffling in the tank. I run 91 pump gas and am in Phx, AZ.

thanks in advance for any info!

Bill
