Nice video :) Just a quick question, why did you fit a swirl pot? There are options for in tank pumps which avoid the swirlpot and the secondary pump installation along with all the fuel line unions. This reduces fuel heating, simplifies the installation and increases reliability as you reduce or remove the issues caused by series mounting pumps as well as all the hardware inside an already warm engine bay. :)
I totally agree, the pro alloy fuel cell was a better option, but too expensive at the time. The surge tank is mounted at the side pot so it's gets some cold air. But a better fuel cell is on the wishlist.
nice job. cant wait for part 4... subed

May I ask what the current cost of an external swirl pot installation and HP pump (Bosch?) is?

I think it was like €350 with the pump
