Cannot wait to see more pics and I think we need a video of that bad boy idling and revved up.

Some of Rick's Tanks handy work. They do a wonderful job and Hector is great to deal with! Just don't say anything about the old ugly fittings...they are some I had laying around and have nothing to do with Rick's Tanks. They will be changed out.

How did you come about your decision for an external fuel pump over internal? Serviceability,fuel requirements?
I also have Rick's efi tank and it has no issues fueling nearly 700hp on 1/8 tank. You get what you pay for.

I have a friend that is turbo guy and he said buy the best and buy Weldon. I called Weldon and asked them what I needed and they said use the 2025 pump if you want to make over 1000 hp. Just so happeded that I ran across a guy selling a good used one with the filter and fittings for $400. Everything bought for fuel delivery is made by Weldon including filters, regulator and electronic controller. Man it's expensive building a turbo car! I had also heard some stories about the internal pumps giving problems. Don't know if there is any truth to that but it sure is easy getting to the pump when it's external. What type of setup do you have?

One of the latest purchases...THE DOMINATOR ECU with wiring and FAST dual sync distributor. Man there are alot of wires!! Slightly intimidating! Hopefully this will help her run like a new car. I bought this from Dennis at Moore Racecraft because I heard so many good things about him and the way he does business.
