Thanks for the reply!

Can I pipe AN fittings into the original tank?

Also what bosh pump would I use for the pickup that can use AN fittings?

its going to be hard to use AN fittings onto o.e. pump as there on speed clips standard. as for lift pump we are just using a walbro foucus pump.. as the 044 does the hard work...

What I meant with the AN fittings with the standard tank was can they be bonded into the OEM cover or does something else have to be made internally to pick up the fuel?

Love your car by the way!

Ok, I see what you are saying. I am going to take a look at it again tonight. Thanks for your help!

(there were two FRS's in Fast ford recently one had orange compomotive wheels and the other was Dhyllan's car which are running setups close to the one I want to put in.)
