Vapor Works tank?
 

Who is running vapors works tank by ricks, Any thoughts on them. Pros / Cons? Im thinking of ordering one in the next few weeks.

Thanks Kirk

If youre on the fence at ALL about these tanks, call up Carl @ Vaporworks and youll get someone that knows more than anyone about fuel delivery systems and will take the time to get a system that is perfect for you. These systems are incredibly high quality and have great value.

it is the best option that I am aware of. :thumbsup:

Simply the best! On two occasions we've run the tank down to under an eighth of a gallon left without running dry. My suggestion is to use the stock 5th gen fuel sending unit which will make the package just about bulletproof!

Thanks for the response guys I will give them a call.


Kirk

cost?

I have one. They are around 1600$ but are the BEST tanks period!

....from the guy that tows a trailer with his Camaro :unibrow:

Thanks for the compliments guys. We are always trying to come up with better fuel delivery mousetraps.

Krik, my email is [email protected]. Please feel free to lay out what your engine plans are now and in the future and we'll come up with a system that makes sense for you.

$1600??? outch. Mine will have a ls2 in it and will need to be able to fit my quadralink that is already installed

DITTO!!!

I've been looking at several different posts and I'm wondering what is the difference in the various tanks, as the cost seems to be really-really wide.

From Summit Racing - Rick's tank, Stainless, for a mild LS1 build - about $1200.
From DSE - Stainless tank for a mild LS1 Build - about $1150 (I've seen on other postings that DSE gets their tanks from Rock Valley, don't know if it is true....)
Ricks Vapor Works - $1600 - From above.
Spectra - Stamped steel/OEM with fuel pump and sender that is similar to OEM pump assembly - $450-600 depending on options.
OEM style Stainless tank with in tank EFI pump - $800 - similar to Spectra

Now I realize there are also custom tanks for high horsepower set ups, and some pumps can easily cost $600 to $1000, then you need to factor in the cost of the tank. But for an LS1/LS2/LS3 with less than 600 HP that will mostly be driven on the street, and might see some auto cross or a drag strip periodically, what is the benefit of purchasing a $1600 tank when a $1200 or even a $600 tank will do??

And I do get that a stainless tank has benefits over stamped steel, don't get me wrong. And I've heard that the spectra tanks has issues before they reworked their baffles/sump, but that is now fixed. Retrofuel and tanks inc seem to be able to modify (or sell mod kits) for existing tanks.

Some help here would be much appreciated....
