I think he using something similar to the MAFT pro, I've been waiting to see how those work out.

Was going to hit the track today, 55 degrees, 30.33 barometer, new pair of ET drags but its not meant to be Made a few blasts last night and I cant get the a/f under 13.5:1, even swapped in the 72lb injectors I have and the more I crank them up it still stays the same so I think I am about at the limits of the stock fuel lines. Could probably make a couple passes if the pumps are cooled off but why take a chance..

Going to do nicer Y block in the tank like MIGHTYMOUSE did and run -8 all the way up front and use the 3/8 stock feed as a return. Should have done all this when the motor was out

The MAFT pro looks pretty cool, I like the idea and think it can work fine with the 2-3 BAR, its a good ideaand the price isnt bad.

I should have it going next week if I can get all the fittings I need here. I really hate to sump the tank and lose my stock style cat back so this is a last ditch effort to keep things sorta stockish, I even have one of those aluminum speed inc tanks here but I hate to lose the EVAP.. Fuel systems are such a pain in the ***

If you go to the SI tank, you can get EVAP to work with a couple of ports. Mines worked all week without problems...knock on wood. Sending unit needs to be 40/250 ohm ...not 250/40ohm...ask me how I know...lol...You might be out of line...0.313id....but I bet the tank connection or the pumps is the problem...0.313 will flow a lot at 58psi. I have an extra Walbro if you want to run 3 pumps.

Where the factory quick disconects are it necks down to .250, one at the sender, one at the filter and one under the hood. Plus I was using a 'T' fitting, plus that factory plastic flex hose isnt the best flowing stuff in the world. Both pumps were new and only have maybe 10 hours on them but I'll put two new ones in.

The speed inc tank is for a 99+ so I have to find a 99+ fuel module, since mine is a 98 it uses the old GM 0-90ohm sender so thats not a problem, plenty of aftermarket senders out there. I could just use the ports off the 99+ sender for the EVAP I suppose.

Problem is if I use the SI tank I lose the cat back since it has a pretty deep sump plus its only 8 gallon, I could run a 4" bullet and flowmaster collecter off the Y and have decent ground clearance or true duals and have no ground clearance

Still up in the air what I want to do, I also need a 99+ filler pipe to use the speed inc tank. I will have two run a pair of the bosche 420s @ 350.00 each plus filters/line etc, ot a pair of A600s or something. I really needed to run the -8 up front anyhow so even if the walbros dont cut it with the new line and fancy 'Y' inside the tank I can still use all the plumbing for the SI tank if I must. Fuel is a pain in the *** LOL.

I have a extra sender setup I have in my garage. I was going to do the dual setup but I bought a Nasty Performance fuel system. If you need it I will let it go for $25.00 shipped. I also have a Speed INC fuel tank that I was going to use but then I got the Nasty Performance fuel system Id say it at least worth $250. Or I have the part # to the custom sending unit I have for my gas tank from nate.

I'll buy the sender from you, all I need is just the top part to cover up the big hole in the speed inc tank. I have a 98 but I'm sure I can get my old sender to work on there somehow, if not aftermarkets are common. I already have a speed inc tank here for a 99+, just dont have a 99+ fuel module

Sent you a PM.
