I just finished welding jay’s gas tank for his new sump setup that will be running twin bosch 044 pumps. The sump features 2 -8 fittings and is constructed of 304l SS. The twin 044 setup should be good for about 1000whp, but we are only shooting for a mere 700whp.

wow that is beautiful. How much did that take to prep the tank before welding? ---

Damn, couldn’t be better timing man! Did you do any internal baffling to the tank before welding that up? I’ve been wanting to do this to my tank but haven’t found info and no one seems to do it this way (just goes with a fuel cell instead). Thanks! ---

That’s very nice indeed. Nice to see alternatives to the typical roles. Fuel cells are not always the best thing and as shown here, some creative fab work and a little welding goes a long way. Nice job :thumb > [@arodracing](#): > > who is doing his cage? im sure its going to be a 10pt with a chute? If it needs to be scratch built, I can do that here. What car is thins anyway?

Underneath the sump there is a bunch of one inch holes drilled for the fuel to get through. Thats it. ---

The gas gets dumped out, then the tank sits outside to let the residual gas evaporate. It was dry with no fumes present when it was welded. ---

Jay already had one 044, so we decided to just buy another one and do it this way. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/code-blues-fuel-system/236144.md?page=2)
