Products -> EFI Fuel System
- Overview
- Electronically controlled Fuel Injection units require approximately 50 psi fuel pressure for proper atomization of the fuel as it is dispersed from the injector valve. Fitment of a high pressure fuel system to the GT40 can be problematic. If a high pressure fuel pump is allowed to run dry for an extended period of time it will seize. This might happen in a GT40 during heavy braking when the fuel moves to the forward part of the tank.
- The Solution
- Our solution was to design a surge tank that is filled from a low pressure pump located near each fuel tank. A high pressure fuel pump feeds from the bottom of the surge tank and circulates fuel around the rails to a fuel pressure regulator. Bypass fuel is diverted through a relay controlled shuttle valve and returned to the feed tank. Discreet indicator lights are installed in the dash to monitor proper fuel distribution.
- Surge Tank Design
- The tank can be designed to fit in an empty battery box (ERA) or almost anywhere that is convenient. If you have special requirements, we can design specifically for your needs.
