Sorry about the confusion. the fuel tank is the one Detroit speed sells.The narrowed fuel tank.Its for a 1969 Camaro .made by rick's. for Detroit speed What I am trying to do is install the phantom 340 fuelpump system in the tank. But I don't know were the baffle are in the tank. I don't want to cut into the tank and hit the baffles. So I was trying to find out if anyone has install this system in this tank.I want to change from a carb system to the new holley terminator efi.That is why I want to install this fuel system thanks :headspin:

You don't have a Ricks tank. You have a DSE tank manufactured by Rock Valley.

If you look closely at the tank you will see ripples on the top and/or bottom of the tank where there are spot welds. Those are holding the the baffles in place. You could remove the sending unit and look in with a flash light to get a better idea.

For the most part, centered side to side, towards the front would be a good location for that setup if that is what you want to run.

Without knowing you or the application I can not recommend the best setup for you.

I feel that Vaporworx is the best setup out there right now.

Thanks Donny.

We do offer a kit to retrofit modern fuel modules. If the OE's could come up with a better, less expensive, more reliable method than a fuel module, they would have done it.
