Surge Tank??? Is it a Good Idea?

ReaperMotorsports · Nov 28, 2012

Just wondering if it is a good idea to put a surge tank on to get rid of air in the fuel lines since the return line doesnt go back to the pump. Has anyone put one on or thought about putting one on? I have the bigger fuel pump in the tank for the BC275 kit right now. Seems like a good idea just havent seen anyone else put one on yet

I would do the OSP one as it doesn't need an additional pump.

I like the OSP one but for $500 I can just make an external system using a bosch 044 pump and fabricate the small tank like in the picture. Is it worth the time and effort or shouldn't I even worry about it ? All the BC and SC kits dont seem to have one or say anything about having to get one.
