that is the tank i made when i built the rail. now i used the busa pump head and used a 1" thick piece of aluminum ....drilled a pilot hole with a hole saw then dropped the pump head\body in so i could transfer bolt pattern then drilled and tapped. welded aluminum block to tank. now there are several models of cars with top mount pump heads and i would pre fer that as it would be submerged all the time. 03 kia sorento pump head is a 6 bolt flange and top side mounted with sender. thats just 1 example. they all very in depth so that may make a diff. but i will tell you that you have to listen hard to hear the pump run with a full tank!

refresh my tired old memory. Whose yellow rail?
"There can be no divided allegiance here.  Any man who says he is an American,
but something else also, isn't an American at all.  We have room for but one
flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is
the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a
loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907

that place fast had make his also sells spun round tanks and they offer a 6 bolt plate on there site. might call and see what that fits. auto pump bodies are easy to convert to the larger pumps. busa body.....the ae 320 lph is the largest i could fit in it with out completely gutting for the two upright hangers. it all works though.

 well got it to fire....enemy had a real head scratcher and still plenty of questions. it's runs and idles but still can't verify if the wiring for inj's in correct order. once enemy updated the firmware in the ecu to ms2 3.4 he lost the function to pulse the inj's to verify they work and placement. might have 2 swapped don't know. it idles and has really good throttle response free revving. did not take it for a run as i have 4 mechanical issues to address. darn an8 fuel fittings are leaking past o rings on flex fuel sensor. also factory idle screw is crap so have to pull tb and drill it out to tap for a better and bigger one lol need to re route oil feed line for turbo as wg head gets hot!  i poured 4 qts of oil in the trans....it has been leaking out the breather tube on the back so i knew it would lose a little more once started so i guess 3.5 qts is prob max in this trans, i'll have to drain a little. def louder than i had hoped but then again the he351 turbine housing has a large exh port and the 4" od 24" long down pipe doesn't help.
