In-tank electric fuel pump
« on: October 22, 2008 - 03:49:28 PM »
Does anyone on here run an electronic fuel pump inside their fuel tank?  I would rather run that than have to mount one on the frame or somewhere else on the car.

The difficulty in having a pump in-tank on a car like this, is the application. Do you have a carb or fuel injection? Most pumps you can find for in-tank installation are high-pressure units for EFI, not low-pressure for carburetion. It would provide a cleaner installation, and less interior noise, but I don't really know if there is a good in-tank pump for carbureted applications. I run oldschool, with a Carter high-volume pump and Holley/Fram can filter, right behind my rear axle. I may never leave the '70s.

It would be cool to have an intank installation just for the invisibility of the installation.  Curious if anyone has one of these?

Confederate Cuda did this as well but he is also running EFI , , personally I prefere to run th epump outside the tank , it is far easier to service if nessisary
