John,It is so refreshing to get part's that are way cooler than you expected.

I ordered one yesterday. Everyone with an EFI Tank from Ricks or DSE should have one of these mandatory if what it says it does works.

I even bought one as a diff breather . Can't say just how good this bit of kits is. Thanks Jp

May have to pick one of these up to go with my new narrowed Rick's tank.

Me too!!

I have another question for some of you. I have a drop in Mustang EFI tank in my car. I am just getting ready to start looking into plumbing. While the tank and fittings are in the trunk, I plan to run the send/return lines along the frame and the vent up to the II much vent.

My question is, when I run those three hoses from the tank through the floor, should I just drill holes and use grommets, or does someone know of through the floor fittings I can use for fuel? I have never heard of anything like that, but would prefer to go that route.

What size line are you guys running?

My Ricks tank has two vent ports....when I talked to them about "why 2?"....they recommended I run both separately....with the Aeromotive pump they told me it will tend to create a vaccum in the tank if I only run one...

Seems like a PITA to have to run 2.....

I'm using a Ridetech fuel neck...which has a vent in the neck if I want to use that too...

A single 3/8" line is more than adequate to vent any tank up to about 2000 hp.

Air is replacing gasoline, and flows at approximately 25 gallons per minute through a 1/4" tube at atmospheric pressure. I've yet to see any fuel pump not on a Top Fuel dragster empty one of our fuel tanks in 40 seconds.

Hope that helps.

With those figures do you think a 1/4 inch line would be enough?

I'm running a vent off my diff too and figured 6 AN is overkill... So hoping running the same size lines will make it easier when buying hose and fittings
