sorry did not make myself clear..... it is carb at the moment so the tank is set up for carb with low pressure lines no swirl pot etc. I want to put the high pressure set up onto the van to make it an injection van, what do the boys do who cossie these?

You don't have to have a swirl pot, unless you do "spirited driving"!!
The std outlet if 1/2" or over would be fine, if there is also a return line.
The easiest way would be to fit the injection tank though, piping is easy and can use opa flexy pipe to make easier.
I am not sure if the P100 is the same tank as a hatch/saloon etc, but does not have to be cossie just injection 2L ghia etc, xr4i xr4x4.

unfortunately p100 tank is different otherwise it would be a bolt up job. also i like a bit of sideways driving.....so swirl pot is deffinately needed!!! the outlet on the p100 tank is tiny!

I have a s2 turbo tank might be a case of cutting and welding and making a hybrid of the two! was just hoping on an easier way really! as welding a petrol tank could be a bit naughty!

thanks

Easy welding tanks, just wash out with water first, won't be a problem, but maybe a fuel cell might be easier, though costly.
