Its an ase 3ltr surge tank with twin internally submerged deutsch werks pumps. Its nice & quiet still good for mid 800's on e85 & well over a 1000 on leaded race fuels.Its abit of a pain to work on if necassary because of where its mounted. The simple chassis rail mounted tank with dual 044's will probably do the same trick as long as its a genuine 1.5 plus ltr tank. You wont want much more than 800 for any road or track work, the zf boxes even built seem to be getting close to there limit at that point 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retro-xr6t Donating Members 95 Member For: 14y 11m 6d Gender: Male Posted 18/09/12 08:00 AM Share Posted 18/09/12 08:00 AM lol so true about double the budget and triple the time, I was only meant to spend 25k including panel and paint, could own a FG F6 and have it worked for what I've spent on my ED now and its not even running yet lol :*(.Biggest tip I can give, do it once, do it right, no point skimping out on a couple things cos they'll more than likely break, have a good chance to take other things with them and then costs you more in the long run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee said they don't have the room at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to modify the oil pump housing at all or just chuck the pump gears in? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
