      what tank do you guys suggest???

      i dont want to spend 1900 on a ricks tank with an a1000 pump if i dont have to. i have a 5.3 ls with a 70mm single turbo and 60# injectors. i was thinking of getting a 69-70 mustang cell that fits half in and half out of the trunk floor and then routing the filler neck through the rear body close to the stock neck location. any thoughts and ideas guys???

      I have been contemplating either running electric fuel pump with my carb system or going EFI. I had a friend that bought a Spectra premium unit and when he questioned the vendor regarding the "replacement pump" they did not have a part number or a vendor name. It is hard for me to shell out $500+ clams for something that might be obsolete.

      I have been contemplating

      Pretty simple installation, uses a standard walboro pump and is serviceable. However, it begs the question, will this be enough for a high performance carb application OR a system such as EZ EFI? I am not a pump guru so i am not sure what the answer is. Also, will this tiny baffle at the end of the pump be enough to control starvation? I had also thought about cutting a 10" X 10" hole in the top of my tank, silver solder in a center box with some holes in the bottom and then solder in a nice flat top. At this time, I am just kicking around ideas.

      i decided to go with the aeromotive cell with the eliminator pump. i plan on going larger engine and turbo later so wanted to go overkill now but i wont have to upgrade later. it was 875 and can handle 1400 hp if needed.
