Ricks stainless tanks is another option- they use a drop in module from a late model camaro (I know, I know) that is returnless. It's more money, but less hassle to setup, plus no external plumbing

They are also working on stamped tanks that will be cheaper but still use the camaro fuel pump module

I just ordered a Cuda EFI tank, pump and sender from TANKS INC.

Just before I picked up the phone I found that they have a CDN distributor in Miltion ON and 20 mins from my house....

To avoid all border crap I decided to buy it local and give the small guy a little business.... :2thumbs: :2thumbs:

A Rick's Vaporworks tank did cost 1700$+ some year's ago,so you get a few Spectra or Tanks Ink tanks for that amount.

In addition to the sending unit I also got this as I already have an external electric pump.

 :clueless:  Why buy a tank designed to let you put a pump inside then not put a pump inside.....  Even of you use a low pressure pump to feed your external pump..... External pumps are prone to failure because they don't pull fuel as well as they push fuel, also they tend to be noisy... The whole point of the Tanks Inc tank is to submerge your pump... Otherwise you might as well just use the stock tank & pick up...

Because I have 2 Mallory fuel pumps now.( 1 for a spare)  Plan is to "use them up" first They are pretty quiet as compared to say the Holley blue pumps. I had a small weep/leak at the sending unit so I got pissed off and figured this new tank will solve my problem and allow for EFI in the future. I bought a Edlebrock STR-14 intake
( came with both, 6 pack lid and a 4 bbl lid) some time ago with the thought to make it a hidden EFI someday.  ;)

Yes, drill a hole from the back( firewall side) for the injectors and wiring.
