Re: Fuel catch tank question (Djaric)

I'm pretty sure thats just a typical catch can for the valve cover. I'm pretty sure that line would get **** on if you tried to run fuel through it. Besides your fuel system is presurized a there is no need for it to overflow into something.

i got into a decent discussion about catch cans here in this thread.

btw, a FUEL surge tank is a good idea for high G loads. but the above item i dont believe is designed for that.

this is a a design for a REAL fuel surge tank.
