johnboy Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Has any body baffled or put a swirl pot into an A series fuel tank, or any ideas how to run injection from a manta A fuel tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulmanta Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Put a GTE coupe manta tank in the boot. I have done a few this way. You need a scrap Coupe to remove the two brackets from the shock absorber towers but easy to do once you have them. I used to keep the filler cap in the boot too for a clean look.

mantaray Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Had a baffle put in an A tank about a year ago, and works fine with inj. engine. It was done by my local radiator shop, Warwick Radiators, they cut a slot in the top half of the tank, just to the side of the sender unit. and then slotted in a baffle plate, and welded all in place. A return pipe was also fitted so the returning fuel went into the new chamber. You can use a GTE coupe tank as suggested but you do louse quite a bit of boot space.

611 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 This is probably not how most people would do it but its how i did mine :-) http://www.theopelproject.com/?p=47 http://www.theopelproject.com/?p=45 http://www.theopelproject.com/?p=534 Im sure you could probably find a shorter in-tank until so it was just the height of the tank and have it not sitting out the top and still get the tank strapped under the floor.
