Thanks for all of the referals, great ideas and cautions. Unfortunately, a factory fuel cell will not fit and don't want to $pend a lot of money to build a new custom tank - my fuel tank is an odd ball shape with custom mounts - not straps. Just want to tweak the tank for fuel injection, reloacte the fuel pump lower (so the pump does not have to work as hard - and get HOT) relocate the fuel outlet lower (from the top), and relocate the inlet from the top to the side (to increase trunk space - as inlet is passing through the trunk).
Many have recommended an in-tank fuel pump, but that would require cutting the top of the tank and mounting the fuel pump inside the tank or adding a pre-pump. Seems that a fuel sump and relocationg the electric fuel pump is an easier "first try" .... before going to a full custom tank!
Will post separate thread about building the optimum fuel sump ...
