Re: Building a stainless steel gas tank questions..

Hey Kid, that was exactly what i was looking for. Thank you so much for all that! It cleared up alot about what the internal baffeling looked like. I wasn't sure. So just have the bottom corners cut off and a little below the top allows enough space for the fuel to transfer efficiently? How much of the corners do you roughly cut? Also I was told that you should make the areas where the fuel pump and sender mount too a little thicker so that way you get a good seal. Does that sound correct? What size of vent tube do you use? Now about the fuel pump and sender unit. For an LS1 motor how much LPH should one want? Will any intank fuel pump work as long as it pumps enough LPH's and is the correct hight? I noticed that there was a difference in prices. Some where low $100's and others were $300. Just want to make sure i don't buy the more inexpensive one and then later on down the road find out that i should have bought the more expensive one. Also were do you get sending units? Same question on that. Is there ceartain ones i should get and ceartain ones i should stay away from? I really haven't looked into fuel pumps and sending units but I thought i would ask. Thanks again for all the help.

Josh
