    I vote for quarterpanel scoops (or naca ducts) that you could close if needed

      I've run an Aeromotve controller for a few years now, including the last two DW's. Well over 12,000 miles on a carb. set up with return system. Using Aeromotive's stealth set up with A1000 pump inside the full cell. All over kill for my power level, but have never had a fuel issue.

          The only 'true fix' I found was to use a pump controller and install a fuel cooler..(on the return side if EFI)..
          the big pumps make heat and move lots of fuel..
          and with EFI it's bringing all the engine heat back to the tank..
          I was also told by a Fuel Pump company that a return style system for a carb set-up prevents vapor lock..
          also..try not to let the fuel tank get below 1/2 tank..

          just my .02

            What kind of fuel cooler do you use?

                Good catch though, that would been a mess. It's sounds you're in good shape Doug as last minute DW thrashes go.

                          Tonight was our first time out of the garage for a few miles... Zero track time so far, but we're hoping to hit a test and tune this week... Glad we're not the only ones not sleeping, lol.

                          Here's some video from tonight...
