Seems like a needed item with a supercharged 383. Where can it be housed and how is it attached to the existing fuel system?

Thanks,

Ken

You could consider a bag tank behind the seats. With some careful ali-panelling you could even partition it off, this would avoid any potential fume problems.

Colin Blower's GT car has a tank insted of the passenger seat, a friend of mine had to sit on it while mapping the car up and down Bruntinthorpe straight, still has the scares to prove it.
Also insted of fitting the lug containers fitt bag tanks in the cills. This will also inprove the front to back wieght split.

Mine has a 100 litre bag tank in an ali bulkhead behind the seats. It limits legroom somewhat though. The factory had it made up, but decided not to persue the idea, because of the limitations space that it imposes inside the car.

However, the standard Mk4 tank was smaller, but fitted behind the seast, so you could see if one of them would fit into your GTR.
