Hi, I'm just starting a tray back project to make a CCV trial car. Its a Disco 1 approx 1993 with a V8i
I would like to remove the original fuel tank and fit a smaller tank on the tray back, but as the fuel pump in the tank I'm not sure how to pump the fuel from a smaller tank.
I don't really want to manufacture a smaller tank to accept the original pump assembly. Is there a smaller tank that is suitable that will take the original pump assembly but doesn't need modifying? Or do I need a small tank and external in lime pump?
I have seen smaller fuel tanks on fleabay (outboard motor speed boat kind of thing) but not sure how to go about pumping fuel to the V8. I know inline pumps exist, but what kind of pressure, volume would I need?
Has anyone come across this issue and if so how did you resolve it?
Any ideas are most welcome!
Thanks, Simon
