Aluminum Fuel Tank Project / EFI Fuel Cooling

I made a little more progress today before it got too hot to work.

younggun2.0,

Since I changed the float direction from rear to front to left to right, I took your advise and added a baffle around the fuel sending unit.

I cut the lower corners of all the baffles 3/4" x 3/4" x 45* . The notches don't showup to well in the photos.

I also cut a 1" diameter hole in about the center of each of the front to rear baffles.

The pickup tube to the sump is 5/8" copper that I stuck a 1/2" dia. screen door spring inside of and bent around a oak tree limb to get about a 2" radius bend.

The sump is 12" side to side and 10" front to rear. The front is 1" deep and the rear is 2" deep. The holes in the tank to the sump are 1" diameter .
