Boy from Oz Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I am just about to have a fuel tank made and I would like some comment on whether foam acts as a sufficient anti-surge medium or if solid baffles are also needed. I am fitting the in-tank pump from the LS1/t56 donor into the new tank and I assume this will require some solid protection at least for the float arm. Can I just fill the rest of the space with petroleum resistant foam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I would recommend a sumpbaffel for the pump. Foam won't do what you want. I tried it in my lt-1 car's fuel cell to help with fuel starvation at the pick up and it did nothing. I ended up going the surge tank route. This was with an external pump system.

Supra510 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Echo the above. Run a properly baffled tank or a surge tank. Foam will not do what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
