Think of a surge tank as a really large fuel bowl on a carb.............  if the pickup becomes uncovered in a hard corner for instance you do not get the immediate dying/fuel pressure drop with efi that you normally would, because the surge tank is still full. Now if you run out of gas in the main tank, then yes, the surge will fail also...........

Hmm. Interesting. I saw in the other fuel system thread you are planning to ask Hector @ Rick's about building this possibly... I am very interested in knowing if he will and at what added cost. Might cover all possible issues that could arise if that was done eh?
thanks
