    Check your class requirements.

    For my class, Top Dragster, 1 gallon minimum which I think is the general requirement.

    Good luck,
    Paul

    puke tank

    Appreciate the help. So if I put a 2 qt can for each valve cover that should work fine? Pretty tight on space.

    Sean you putting it up front? It really works good to plumb it to the back. Gets it out the way and safer if it pukes any.

    Sean: Does Billy mean the very back of the car (trunk area)? And what size line(s) are you going to run to it? Are you going to "T" the lines from the valve covers together or run 2?

    Thanks
