I can install it inside the tank hanging on the overflow hat and be fed by the 3 TT pumps

Gerry ,

I think the easiest way to install these and set it up properly will be to remove the tank and and take your time with it and if you are gonna add a third pump you should pull a tank out!

Nice progress BTW

OR install it outside , be fed by the 2 pumps since I only have 2 TT denso now and the big external pump .. all staged based on boost . I probably might as well just use what I already have rather than buying another TT Denso pump.

Hhhmm.. I know someone will jump in and frown about the idea of me having 2 TT denso pump and a 1500hp external pump .. OVERKILL !!!!!! . But , that is what I already have . That big brand new pump had been sitting in my garage for 4 years now . I might as well use it. And it will be turned on only above 700rwhp. At that point pump noise will be drowned by exhaust noise

If you want to install that fuel log or 3 pumps inside the tank , as Omar mentioned , taking out the tank is the best thing you can do to make your life easier.

Fuel log on the top hat , well above the slosh tank .. so that is a nice place to install it and feed it with the three pumps.. BUT am seriously considering mine to be outside the tank since my third pump is an external one.

Hahaha Victoria's Secret for Men. So true. I feel like a kid brought to a Toys R Us store whenever I buy parts for my car.

True , we all enjoy buying stuff for our cars and enjoy building them but when we get to settle down and think how much we have spent on them and see our pockets empty , we all call them money pits...... well , just like someone says it , I just hope it gives me the ride of my life.

Damn, I love this place. I was really expecting to be grilled alive after having thrown the idea of using 2 x TT Denso pumps and 1500hp external pump for my fuel setup ... let me go straight to the point , looks like there are fewer di**heads here who before they will help, need to throw a jab by giving some nasty comments.

Hey , it is all good. I try to learn from every possible word I hear or read .I can't expect all good words. I try to handle all criticism well and filter them in a way that makes me a better person either in my knowledge or character. So for those who are knowledgeable , don't be afraid to throw in your comments. Newbies like me , have lots to learn I must admit. I don't pretend to know what I don't know.



BACK to the fuel tank .. am taking it out this morning . It is easy , got a 14mm bolt on each corner and 3 banjo bolts at the bottom . (feed,return,canister/vent)

I would love to see how my fuel setup will look like once done if I install my fuel log in the trunk instead of being inside the tank ... will surely look like a mad scientist lab or an addict's meth lab ..

LOL this reminds me of that poor guy who posted a youtube vid of him removing his fuel tank to replace his stock fuel pump. He figured out after several hours of unnecessary labor that the pump access is behind the seat

Anywho, great progress sir. Clearly this is no budget build.

feed from the internal denso pumps will go into these -6an bulkhead which will be installed on the fuel sender hat which can be capped while not in use. Will install three of them but will only need two so I have room for expansion. With these, I will now have to install -6 an / -10o-ring fittings on the fuel log to accept the feed instead of the -10an/barb that are installed now.
