Thank you Nick for reference to the article on installing and “in tank”
fuel pump.
Does anyone have quantifiable information on the difference in fuel temps
between an in-tank pump and the external electric pump? I may do some
research on my own and if I find anything worthy I will let the group
know.

Trick) My thoughts on advantages of the fuel pump in the
tank is to overcome some of the problems caused by new fuels. Access to our
tanks is nothing more than one strap holding it in place. Here is some thought
to start with.

"Gary Pavlovich" <glpavlovich@xxxxxxx> Subject: Re: In tank fuel pump (WAS: Re: My Car's New Trick) Thank you Nick for the comprehensive list of stations and Ethanol-free
fuels with pricing. I won’t complain about our 91 unleaded “premium” w/up
to 10% Ethanol laden swamp water here in southern California.
With my vintage Mopars, I always add Lucas Fuel Treatment and TORCO
Accelerator to our fuels to protect against detonation. I haven’t had any
Ethanol issues though in over 25yrs. of driving with our fuels.
I use Carter electric fuel pumps, fuel pressure regulators, and over 1.5”
of laminated hardwood spacer under my Thermoquad 850cfm carbs; keeps the fuel
much cooler than otherwise; –70F heat reduction w/laminated wood spacers and
–20F with the phenolic resin Thermoquad carburetor float body. I will be
adding a cool can, RPM Air Gap (from LD340 intake) and cold air induction to my
340 car later this year to further enhance fuel temps to the carburetor.
Nick, what is your thoughts on the advantage of having a fuel pump inside
the tank like new vehicles? The new cars need cool fuel to extend the life
of the pump but I would prefer the external Carter/Holley/Mallory style pumps
externally mounted for easier access on our 50-60’s Hot-Rods.

sender? But clearance could be an issue??
