efi fuel tank baffle

[mcosta at netsynergy.com]

John,

        A friend of mine who fuel injected his 67 mustang, ran into the same 
question.  What he ended up doing was creating a right triangle shaped sump and 
used that to collect fuel and minimize slosh.  i believe it was about 3-4 inches
deep and about 8-10 inches long. I'm not sure what less he did internally to the
tank but I hope this at least gives you some food for thought.

First, please don't turn this thread into a discussion on how you 
should or should not weld to a gas tank...
     
I have a 22 gal stainless steal "regular" gas tank. I intend to add a 
few internal baffle plates to reduce the amount fuel slosh as the tank 
nears empty. I would like some comments and suggestion as to what 
might work best (geometry, orientation, sizes....). Thanks.
