Default Under car fuel swirl pot.

I want to convert my current system of in tank Escort cosworth pump. To that of using the in tank fuel pump as a lifter pump to an under car swirl pot and then use a 044 pump under the car to run the engine.

I have looked about and all I can find is items like this. That you install into your boot.



I want to keep it all under the car. So who makes the under the car type swirl pots that I can fit next to my tank?

Thanks
Ollie

Will have to talk to mike and see what he can do.
It’s that or remove my spare wheel and fit the swirl pot and pump in its place.

I emailed Pro Alloy a few weeks back for the same thing, they told me that they didn't have one off the shelf but could make one if I gave them the dimensions, may be you will have more luck. Martin at Reyland can supply one too, PM him for a price.......

cheers
