Surge tank plumbing all made. Wiring in place. Just need to add a return fitting to the in tank fuel basket, and hard mount the surge tank Fuel starvation is almost a thing of the past (I hope!).
EDIT: Replaced the In Tank pump with a DW65c for ethanol compatibility, hard mounted the radium surge tank to the trunk ledge it is on the in pic, ran the lines through a grommet made from the plug that was in that hole, connected all the lines at each end, fixed the inevitable fuel leaks that popped up.


Flicked the key between off and run a couple dozen times to push all the air out of the surge tank through the return line to the fuel basket...set the fuel pressure regulator to 45 psi...AND THE CAR FIRE RIGHT UP! ran it in the garage as long as I dared (11pm in the burbs, and while not as loud as some cars in the neighborhood - it's not factory quiet ) No leaks or problems. A few more hours of clean up work and the car will be ready for the track this weekend


Hat tip to the Pit Crew!
