Okay all well I was not satsified with the last fuel upgrade so my brother is redoing everything while I'm over here in Iraq (God I really love my brother)

First thing he tackled was the cheap wiring that GM installed on the harness. Mind you I aready have the Racetronix wiring harness so the only weak wiring is from the Racetronix harness to the tank itself so we fixed that. The first picture is a side by side of the new and old wiring.

Okay more pictures, as you see the bucket has been put back on but it may be taken off, thinking about calling Larry again and getting a second pump and just banding them together and Y'ing the pumps. Also have a KB Boost a Pump coming soon. I beleive this will fix any issues that may arise in the back end of the car.

If this isn't a drag-only car, I would recommend maintaining the stock fuel pump bucket. It keeps the pump always immersed in gas preventing it from overheating during low fuel levels/turning/braking.

It will be fine, many people on here run without the bucket.
