external fuel system-tapping into the fuel tank?
Hey guys I'm installing a new external fuel system with a weldon 2025 pump- does anyone know of a company that has a system/set up that sumps from the bottom of the stock fuel tank? Something that taps into the tank... something along those lines...

We took out the fuel tank and welded in a -12 weld bung/fitting into the fuel tank.
We use Earl's -12 braided hose from the fuel tank over to an extra large Holley in line fuel filter.

Or what about drilling a hole and using those fuel cell bulkhead fittings that have nylon washers that seal the fitting in the tank. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Barry...spagenameZWDVW
Could something like that be used?

I like both ideas- will that be adequate to supply 1200hp? even with a weldon 2025 pump. It just doesn't seem like a tapped hole will allow enough fuel flow... anyone else?
