Use a dash 10 pump inlet line, not dash 8. I bored out the tank nipple fitting which originally had a smaller ID than the hose fitting. The hose id may not be a problem, but carefully check the fitting ID sizes. A hose will receive more suction if the fitting is restricting it. We get more pump "groaning" noise than a stock setup, usually after being driven a while and when you slow down to park the car, it can be heard. We have the second "TC" pump from sweet, and both have leaked a little out of the front seal.

The cheap Sweet reservoirs are lousy, the return fluid port inside the tank has a cap welded over the nipple, it has a hole on the side to spin the fluid inside the tank but it winds up aerateing the fluid.

If you will run the car on a road course, a small oil cooler may need to be added.
