I have attached a few photos to illustrate. The 2 photos showing the stock mounting (white hanger) with the level float at the max up position (notice the swing arm hitting the stop).
Also then 2 photos showing it with the new setup (disregard the beat up nature of the product, its a mock up and machine program test unit.. this crummy one will go in my own car). Notice that without the bending of the baffle that the float would hit it. |

Yep, the picture in the initial instructions looked like only the lower corner of the baffle should have been bent.
Thats what guinea pigs are for though, so we can figure out where instructions are lacking or product can be improved so when its finally released, noone else has any issues. This kit is extremely high quality and almost a work of art. Its a shame its concealed in the gas tank. As for me and the fuel level float hitting, its not a big deal because its just at the top of the range and because racecar. The lower range works fine, and thats all that really matters, so I'll leave mine as is.

Sorry guys I've been busy moving inventory and what not (things are changing with our business, trying to increase efficiency and quicker workflow). I'm nearly done with that stuff.. I'll get some more kits ready to ship out this week for those of you anxious to go!

Just getting back to this issue and have gone through 19 pages of posts and am still not sure of the exact solution here - my question is Phunk, are we now talking a surge tank solution or is this still an internal tank solution?

^^^ exactly... its a surgetank style solution that works in harmony with the factory fuel system (or can be configured to work with return systems or pretty much anything you do). It is all concealed inside the tank and there is not an inch of modified plumbing outside of the tank... the only thing you have to do outside the tank is install a relay kit and run it to the drivers side of the fuel tank.
Doing it the way we have, and intercepting the fuel lines inside the tank, has allowed us to do a surge can setup without all the typical problems and complications with external surge cans on the 370z/350z/etc. There was never a proper way of doing it, regardless of it having been done, and we are addressing all the issues with it by installing it in a unique way. |
