right, is there a way to link my right hand tank to an injection tank?

if not can anyone suggest which fuel pump would be ideal for a turbo engine? does a turbo engine have to have a return? (i have both a injection and carb 7.5 gallon lefthand fuel tanks)

anyone whos good on ms paint to draw me a quick diagram would be helpful :xxx:

to link an spi tank to a right hand tank i think you'll need to put in another pipe at the bottom of the spi tank!!

its possible to t-piece it with the std tank and put a high flow external pump on the recieving end of the t-piece! you will need a return line tho to 1 of the tanks!! from the presure regulator!!

you could have a look on ebay for a metro turbo fuel pump or try www.turbominis.co.uk

i have used this site a lot for all help on mine

if you are going to use a normal petrol tank then make sure you have a return to the tank from the fuel regulator
