Yes, I'm sure you can purchase it. I expect ground clearance to not be affected beyond the low point of the box sections under the floor.

I think the low point of your car isn't the headers, but the angle of the cats. I think with some rework they would be brought up to aid the ground clearance.

Not sure what pump people are using. I plan on running a surge tank with a internal pump in the tank to prevent fuel starvation. I'm also just going to a tiny battery upfront. Well the smallest battery that will fire the engine.

Sorry for the late reply I was in a nasty accident that totaled out my commuter car on the way to work. This is going to cause a delay to the project. Gotta buy another car.

Thats no good. Hope it doesn't delay the project to long.

Dont see ths need for a surge tank myself unless your thinking drift car or FI and race gas....the main problem is our tank design.....its a saddle with a weak syphoning system for the pax side.....Vorshlog never addressed this for me...after pulling out in traffic with less than a half a tank and taking a left hand turn in a hurry to avoid uncomming traffic my car basically stopped and it got hairy fast....once the fuel evened up it fired up and i floored it so I wouldnt get squashed......so what i ended up doing is wiring in a second pump for pax side of equal output.....forgot the LPH but its over kill..didnt want that near mishap to happen to me again......both pumps feed into a common T obtained through jegs along with the AN plumbing hard lines....The wiring for the pumps with relays supplied by dietchworks with direct voltage coming straight off my rear mounted battery.....works great....have had no issues.....but becauss of my dual fuel pumps the regulator in engine bay had to be turned way down to get to 60 psi , the nominal pressure for A LS1.....but also the 60psi doesnt budge no matter what the demand requires......this saddle tank dual pump set up has been used by others for years.....looked into the hydromat for awhile....but decide against it since this seems to be working fine......long term though since pumps are turning at full capacity they may have longevity issuss....eventual i need a cockpit fuel pressure gauge easily wired in via my regulatod.

I hope you're alright, man. What kind of car did you lose?


Also, what does Vorshlag do to the transmission?

Thats weird I have driven mine hard for about 10k miles and never had a fuel starvation issue in a turn. I am however running a DW300. I don't have cats either. I have custom 180 headers that connect to a Fullblown custom made exhaust. I do have clearance problems with the exhaust in the back but I think when I get cutouts I will have the shop address this.

Wouldnf matter the pump size, once the gas flows to on side of the saddle ,not enough syphoning to run a V8, atleast in my case, its a ventury syphon btw, nothing is pumping nothing is syphoning eventually your bucket runs dry....Cough! Cough!......still might look into a Hydromat though for insurance.

Wish somebody would make this for our cars......would of saved me a lot of headaches and many days waking up with a sore back......we are not alone with this issue....http://www.bimmerworld.com/Intake-Fu...ation-Kit.html
