The making of mine
Made an aluminium box to fit inside my safety cell
Made a lid to create an access hole for the pump / swirl pot
Re angled the filler neck once I had deceided where the filler cap was going
Installed the fuel pump, pick up pipes, swirl pot, feed/return & "roll over" vent fittings
Sealed it all behind a home made carbon fibre lid.
It does have a sump (for the pick up pipe) so it always has fuel and never suffers from surge so no foam needed.
Does me fine

No Alex only 1 pump 
My swirl pot is inside the tank - and the pump is then inside the swirl pot, the pick up pipe is modified to be at the lowest point in the tank, sat in a sump.
Its quite trick the way I did it
I knicked it off a Vauxhall Zafira and mounted it inside my tank

Hehe, looking great.. want to make me one? 
I removed the fuel tank today, and a little tips.. don't get the fuel down in your pants Got damn it burns!!!! Special when I did get some on my.... testicles..... was standing there with allot of snow down my pants for an 30min 
did get it sorted out though
but will go for one with sump and foam from US. Have order a swirl pot.. but the customs still have it.. they don´t know what it is... but they believe I have to pay some taxes but since they don't know what it is they cant tell, and they want ask either, and i am not telling them
