Ryan, most roadsters like mine and yours have the cell in back. It will work fine, WD 40 will be your new best freind with BEER/Alcohol for fuel.

Thanks for the info john i have ran alchohol before and have a belt drive pump already just wasnt sure if it would work with tank in back i had the tank in front on the car i had it on before. Dont really want to mess with buying a new pump and all that mess the car works fine like it is on Q16 just really wanted to run the alchohol for the cooling part. Thanks for all the input from everyone.

Ryan:
IMO you may want to add a small non-expensive electric pump to "prime" your belt driven pump for better start ups and just in case you drain your tank or run out of fuel for any reason. Been there a couple times.

But i do believe that racing from behind or beside is easier in alot of cases..

I just cant spend the 20k i would need to go 165...

And i might have hit the brakes more than once giving the fast guy the stripe...
it must be kenny's headers making him do good!

I think there should NOT be any MPH rules. I run 150 in S/ST in div. 4, a couple of years ago when we starting going this fast people did CRY about it, but they have got used to it. If you dont like what US FAST cars are going, build a bigger motor or shut up and deal with. Just my 2 cents
