I couldn't help but add my experience. I have had two Ricks tanks in the same vehicle. 69 Camaro with LS7, 44# injectors at 58 psi., both tanks with the A1000 and a parallel fuel system.
Had issues with the stock Ricks tank, at low levels the pressure would drop, also around a right turn at 30 mph the engine died. Talked with a Boeing jet fuel tank designer and he suggested to put flap baffle doors in the tank around the pickup.
Hector at Ricks was great and did that along with a narrowed tank AT NO EXTRA COST-FREE! kud dos to Hector. Unfortunately, same problem. At low levels the pick up will starve.
I am going to ask Hector to build a tank with a sump and place the pickup in the sump. This is how the Factories do it and it would not require any extra tanks.
I have talked with Tyler at ATS and he stated they did not have any problems with their Ricks tanks and Bosch pumps. They run a dead head system like in Bad Penny. Wonder if Steve has any issues?
