Exactly...thanx for all the replies, but yeah I don't mind spending some doe so that I don't have to run my tank down before the weekend and pour some race gas in...then wasting what I don't use. I'd rather have it on tap at the flick of a switch. I guess the return to the cell would be the tricky thing?

not if you use a switching valve. it directs the supply and return line to the correct tanks.


pretty simple, however, get a new one....it will drive you nuts if you use an old one that is bad!

i dont care! hell, i about got an asswhippin for dry humping this dude down heres GN at Fast Freddies last year.....it was ghetto one too (the powerstroke IC with no grille ) but, it was pretty quick....



and yes, one off a ford truck will work fine. like i said, if you are gonna do it, get a new one.



alky or meth inj. will be better, but if you want to do a seperate tank, more power to ya.
