Discuss.

Do I have to get a GSL-SE fuel tank?

Can I not get away with just bolting on an in-line EFI pump?

I think you can run a efi pump, but the non-se tanks lack the baffling of the EFI tanks if I remember correctly. Even with an SE tank, I have punched mine on a hill once with about a 1/4 tank of gas and uncovered the pickup in the tank, causing a violent pause and then surge.

That's true. It's really best to run a surge tank. That said, I'm trying my blow-through setup with just a GSL-SE pump and stock non-SE tank. We'll see what happens.
