Fuel Surge Tank

I know there are people who make these already, but this one is a special one I made with help from Zach at G&J Aircraft in Ontario.  It is a “Swirl Style” surge tank.  It is designed to spin the fuel creating centrifugal force that pushes any air bubbles, created from turbulence, to the outside.  This allows the high flow fuel pump to draw clean fuel free of air bubbles.  This concept can be applied to cooling systems, power steering systems, and pretty much any liquid system that suffers from pump cavitation and overheating.

The plan is to use it on Gary’s car first.  Gary’s car already runs and is closer to being competition ready.  Once this is proven on Gary’s pink GarageJus4Kix car hopefully I will have an engine ready to rock in the Skyline.  I’ll post more pics when its installed and hopefully by then I’ll know how to use photoshop or something so I can explain with arrows and stuff how it works.  If I don’t know how to use photoshop by then I’ll draw a picture of how it works.
