Has anyone running a WC made and running fuel surge tank? Is it even needed?

Thanks

Even more puzzling, what's the need? Plumb your fuel system correctly there is no need for any surge tank.

There is a need for a surge tank in my race buggy. Hard cornering would leave me spitting and sputtering and even stalling. I have also heard it is common in rally cars and road racing cars. I am just using a low pressure electric fuel pump for my supply to the tank.

I dont really have a need for it but it sounds like a good idea to me. If im going up a hill I dont want to lose my pickup.

Just put a sump and baffles in your aluminum tank and you shouldnt have any problems.

We always just used to run a sump and a set of baffle plates with the tank in the rear.

Now we're running a plastic tank that's quite tall and narrow up front, plus foam, seems to be fine.
