I can invert that, I can buy it if you like and you can borrow it?

See, I do about 10 engines a year

I just ordered it last night from Summit racing, I got the x tall one. Maybe I can rent it out to other guys like me that only need it for one job.
Thanks for the offer.

Default Summit stepped up

I ordered my Mac's pivot leveler and adapter for the LS engines. Summit had the XX tall adapter for $119 so I ordered it on the 18th. Today I get an E Mail from them saying they no longer make that one and they could give me the X tall one for $149, so I called and told them they charged my card then they can't get it and now they want $30 More for this one, which is the right price for it. They put me on hold and come back and give the more expensive one for the original price of the cheaper one. I thought that was pretty stand up of them. I was just hoping for a small discount.

I also got my VaporWorks controller for the CTS V fuel module, It looks like a very nice well made kit. One more fitting and the tank will be ready for when I need it to go in.

Rummaged around and found some AN fittings and bought some to plumb up my Fuel module for the VaporWorks tank today only need a small 3" piece of -8 PTFE hose to connect the corner pickups and I can install it in the tank. Tried it to see how its going to work.



To this


This is the outside setup.



and in the tank for mockup

I got the piece of PTFE hose so I could connect the corner pickups to the pump ( Message to self-- Next time buy black braided polyester covered hose instead of Stainless steel if your going to peel it off the inside hose! I'm still licking my wounds... ) Here's the connection I made.



and it mocked up in the tank.



OK whats the secret to getting the ring to lock on the tank? Does it take 9 men and a boy to get it to close? I tried pushing down while trying to turn it, thats not happening! Next I'll round up some help to hit it while I push down on it.
Any secret hand shake or code words to get this done will be appreciated.
