You mean you have to feed LS1's fuel? I thought they were powered by 'The Force' ! The dark side ain't that dark afterall.
What you're suggesting is very close to what I have except my swirl pot (1 ltr) is next to the fuel tank. Not so far for the small lifter pump to push the fuel. I'm running a Pierburg low pressure lifter pump and a Bosch high-pressure pump (good to 600Hp so VPW tell me).
The only thing that makes me nervous with your suggestion is having the swirl pot in the engine bay. I guess the fuel in it's being recycled often enough not to risk it getting too hot but after you switch the engine off - who knows? Perhaps I'm just paranoid. All I'm saying is just be careful. Noise could be another factor. The pumps are annoyingly noisy things and having the drone alot closer to you might be a nuisance.
Cheers,
Adrian.
