That's a "cool" can. Would you post dimensions of it? I'd like to know height and diameter. Would the -10 can be likewise or a bit larger/taller? Thanks.

I already shipped it to a customer, but to give you an idea a coke can fits perfectly inside. The -10 will be taller, aparently it will hold a Foster's Beer can

I think you would cool all fuel in tank because you are bypassing fuel back to tank. I would think it might help. Maybe with the hi fuel pressure it might not make a difference.Would be nice to know but since I have never seen one on fuel injected car doesnt mean someone has not tried it.

Curtis, if I get time I'm going to test that this coming season. I'm too tight (or poor) to buy one, but I have talented friends. We'll make something. As small as my fuel cell is, I think I could get it all cooled down before leaving the trailer.

I had wondered if once the sizing was correct to flow adequately anyone ever checked cold fuel with rich jet and lean jet versus warm fuel with rich jet . lean jet to see if it is volume or temperature we are changing with the cool can that helps. My cool can limited flow so much I deserted it and ran faster because flow picked up.(prehistoric cool can with small lines)

Chad, I would't know the difference. Diet Dr Pepper is as wild as I get.
