anyone

 

Injected cars do run an internal fuel swirl pot to help prevent fuel starvation, so yes ideally you'll need a fuel tank from an injection vehicle (easiest option, imo).

 

but can it be done the opposite way, keep the original tank and run an external swirl pot??

 

Of course.

You'd need 2 fuel pumps,

a low capacity (say, a facet Red top) to supply the swirl pot. And then a proper one to feed the engine.

The engine would return to the swirl pot, and the swirl pot would return to the tank.

HTH

 

I suppose you could, but reckon it would be more hassle. The high power Cossie boys do similar to the above (usually in the spare wheel well).

 

what ever's easiest to be honest...

dont want loads of grief...

i've got my fiesta turbo tank which i could use...

 

Buy an XR3i tank. Cheap as chips from one of these pattern places.

Cheaper than a facet fuel pump, and sure as shit cheaper than a swirl pot.

 

i've kept my FRST one would this do the same job?
