Sorted then! Order the PW surge tank on Monday, delivered to your doorstep midweek, install over the weekend and we will go to AHG the following week!
Have you got your APs fitted yet? I've got some new stuff I want to try out also

I have been advised oil baffled sumps are not required for a GC8.

As for in tank anti surge fuel devices this cheapish copy by MRT works.

What if you've got an 06 motor in your gc8? Haha.
Hows does the chassis alter the oils physics?

Btw how many $ for the Cosworth sump baffle via ASG?

Worth adding however that a baffled sump may be relevant if your running a hi RPM application, best speak to your engine builder. I went a non shimmed 12mm oil pump with the EJ20G's oil squirters on a standard sump with 7500rpm max.

In the MRT cut out picture I posted note the half arsed attempt by Subaru to create an anti surge device. The extra "biscuit tin" inside the fuel tank still allowed fuel to slop over the top creating surge on some corners.

The only thing I don't like about the PW anti-surge tank is that if you back it into a wall/object/rear ender, etc the risk of fuel spill/fire is increased.

I agree, but I like the fact it is outside of the car (no fuel smell), also it is track only so less likely to be in a traffic accident.
