.
-I have heard good things about the Phantom stuff. Lynda Jacobs runs one that Randy Johnson installed in here '66 vert. She definitely drives here car hard. I know of a few others too with good results.
-the Tank's Inc stuff, I've heard mixed results. Seems like a lot of hot rodders use them, not sure how many are being tracked/autox'd.
-I've never talked to someone using the Caprice tank, only saw pics of it...I don't care how it looks like a big ole saggy diaper hanging under the car. I think to get it to fit, you have to cut a little bit of clearance.
Good call with the Corvette FR, lots of guys run that with great success. |
Thanks, Aaron!
I didn't like the looks of the plastic Caprice tank either. I seen the Tanks Inc tank was baffled and recessed for the pump, but didn't know how well the pump would hold up. I know of several builds using the Phantom pump in the stock tank, but I'm not in the autox crowd (yet) to hear how well it performs.
Thanks again and I'll keep in touch...
