High Pressure Fuel Pump

Check the minimum size hole needed Chris, the bit you're pointing at in last pic doesn't look to be 100mm & a smaller hole will be a lot easier to cut ( very slowly so no sparks )

just got to get some cork to make a gasket and drill the collar bolt it on then figure a way to get all the swarf out of the tank

no drilling cutting and filling for me just boshed it with a hole cutter

I used a big lump of blutac on a stick where I could reach. Plasticene would probably work too. My primary school's custard would have been spot on too.

Cork table mats from Ikea work well.

Hi all

My first post here on rhocar forum.

I am currently building a GBS Mazda Zero GT and would also like to fit the "in tank fuel pump / swirl pot" to save on money and space of fitting the conventional swirl pot setup.

I have mocked up the fuel tank ( in cardboard ) with the dimensions of approx 1000mm wide x 165mm deep (bottom) 211mm (top) x 193mm high (near back seat) 145mm (near rear boot panel).

I'm after some advice as to what pump you would recommend based on the dimensions given.

I would like to retain as much boot space as possible, but accept I may have to increase the height of the mounting collar.

 

Thanks Michael
