Hey guys
Trying to nail down the final parts of my build just wondered if anyone has experience with integrated ( internal ) fuel surge tanks ?
I’m looking at Taarks and radium mainly atm with twin walbro 450 as they look to be very good quality I spotted ai do one also but not heard much about these
Anyone used or seen either of these in the flesh ? Any other options ?

I've got one of these to go in mine....

Fully Enclosed FP34 Fuel Pump Surge Tank for Bosch 044 "Motorsport" Fuel Pump - 034-106-FP34 - 034Motorsport

Not sure if that'll be enough flow for what you're building. Ben Taylor on the SXOC is using one :)
That looks a nice bit of kit ! I would need two of those for what I’m planning to run though I should imagine ! Was originally going twin 044 but probably going for the walbro 450 as they are methanol tolerant incase I want to be really silly 🤪

I was actually looking at this originally as my mate ran one and rated it , but the 044 are so noisy I think it would do my nut in why I’m looking at internal now plus also probably walbro 450 rather than 044 as they are methanol tolerant just incase

Fair enough I figure I’m not going to hear it over then engine any way. Good to know your mate rated it. What he use as a pick up pump?

Methanol?!? You crazy!

Yeah I think you won’t hear much over your engine ha ha ha I’m not sure the external gates will be loud enough on mine to mask the sound I don’t know buddy but I can find out if you like
