Spectra Fuel Tanks....

[Magntik]

Wow, I had almost forgotten about this one.



So, I'm running Dakota Digital VHX gauges and pulled the pump assembly. Sending unit ohms' to 114.5 full and 0.8 empty. DD has a custom setting so I programed the gauge to the sending unit. So I should be dead on as far as fuel level.

I have about 500 miles on the set up and no issues yet. Mostly hard street driving and some smokey burn-outs.
The car was on the dyno last week and the guy say it ran great and maintained around 55 psi the whole time. And he ran most of the gas out of it during the two days he had it. Gauge said 10% (DD has a LCD read out that shows all the readings) and I drove it hard about 3 more miles to the gas station. Put about 15 gallons in it so there was 3 or so left.
No problems and this is the tank I bought late year.

Curious to see if my luck holds on power tour and Good-Guys Autocrosses

Magntik, I am also running the DD VHX gauges in this customers 69. I love functionality and adjustablility of these gauges and how all the indicator lights and message centers are integrated into them. I ran this car past 10% (0% lol)at the shop before i could get to the gas station and it still ran fine. I pulled and checked mine to ensure it was wired correctly and the sending unit worked. The sending unit from Spectra was supposed to be 90 full and 0 empty, mine was around 110 full and 0 empty. DD actually shows the current measurement in ohms in the fuel gauge setup. Perhaps my fuel pumps were flukes, so hopefully yours and everyone elses will continue to work.

Has anyone has any luck lately with a tank for a 2nd gen from Spectra. I am going to replace my tank next month and wonder if its really necessary to step up to a vaporworx or someting similar? I am at about 600hp at the crank,and running EZ EFI with their pump kit. I believe the tank I want is the gm42bfi,or the gm42afi.
