I've tried Zen and API about fuel swirl pot installations, but I'm struggling to find a solution. Anyone know who does fuel swirl pot installation?

Cheers

Enginetuner do a nice setup using a external aermotive pump and swirlpot, I think lateral also do something similar

 

Zen installed mine - works a treat

 

We've used three alternatives! they all work, it's about choice, and budget.
Option one was a 4 litre Sard swirl pot, fitted with twin internal pumps, fed by the original Walbro from the tank, fitted to two of our projects, no problems, takes up boot space of course!
Option two was an Aeromotive 1000L pump and filter, fed from a 2 litre swirl pot, again fitted to two cars with no problems, the pump is noisy, but at least you know it's working!
Option three is a 1 litre pot, under bonnet fitment, feeding from the original Walbro, then into a Bosch 044 pump. Tested on a very quick hillclimb car, no surge issues, and the cheapest to supply and fit.
Fuel line issues, we've found that there isn't any braided hose we'd use, that isn't best fitted with the proper aero fittings. They look great with the Sard and aeromotive set ups, but cost an arm and a leg. The decent braided hose isn't designed to use with clips, and any that has a rubber insert tends to seep fuel. We'd rather use good quality rubber hose with stainless clips where appropriate.

 

I asked Zen but was told he doesn't do a newage kit currently

 

I was looking at an install where the old IC water spray tank lived in the boot, but under the bonnet might be an option. Are there any issues with the fuel warming up?

What's the cost for the under bonnet?

A "pal" had issues with the smell of petrol when he had one fitted, temporarily....

dunx

 

Was that in boot or under bonnet?

Anders

 

There can be but that is easily sorted.

 

We've experienced no problems. The fuel is running into and out of the pot the whole time, so doesn't sit there warming up for long! It could be insulated.
The cost is for the 044 pump, £166.75, swirl pot, £60 ish, fuel lines and clips
(£10?) plus labour ( 2 hours) for fitting and wiring (relayed) £115. All inc vat.
