You drill a big hole in the side. Seriously.

If I understand your question correctly you are asking how you access the tank to tap it without dropping it?
If so, you remove the rear drivers wheel and wheel liner, then you can tap the tank from there.

I stole this picture from another thread but here is what it looks like when you tap the tank...

Is that the drivers side or passenger side tank?

And, which side to you recommend tapping into?

You never want to tap the passenger side tank or you will be sucking air when your gas gauge reads 1/2 tank.

Default Lots of 007 agents out there lol SPIs everywhere!

We have been cranking these out hand over fist! I need to grab more pics from my Media manager, but here are some pics for now:

2017 ZL1 with our X1000 package featuring a first with STOCK CAM/HEADS with the ONLY additional fuel support being our SPI Kit and this customer picked his car up and drove all the way back to the FL Keys, over 20 hours!



The X1500 C7 mecca with our 427, Big Valve heads, G1Pro Air to Water setup, WEAPON-X SPI Kit and Boost Freeze chiller kit, Nitrous etc! I can't wait to post details about this build, the outcome of this setup vs the air to air intercooler is just unbelievable!



The second Procharged V3 to my knowledge featuring our X1000 package with the F1A-94 and our SPI kit making 1000 HP



World's Fastest Whipple CTS V3 with our X1100 package featuring our 388, big valve heads, SPI kit, 15" kit etc etc:


My compound boost ZL1 with our X2000 package featuring, well everything including the kitchen sink LOL - 427, SPI kit, chiller, custom everything:



C7 388ci build with the ECS Kit and our SPI kit that's wrapping up now:



C7 Z06 Whipple topped 388ci long block with our SPI kit and X1100 package:




There are plenty more, this is all I have on my phone at the moment

I have had the car back for about a month with the kit installed and tuned and no issues to report just put gas or E85 in and drive. (No meth)
I made about the same power on 93pump (low 700rwhp) as I did before with my previous cam lobe upgrade.
It made 758rwhp & 725rwtq on E85 after the SPI kit and a Flex Fuel tune on the same dyno I have used since my stock baseline.

So far I'm really happy with how it came out as its a low hassle setup.
Now to decide on a Whipple 2.9 or a 2650 when they come out. If it takes too long for the 2650's to show up I'll just do the Whipple kit.

Ben, curious since I have your low side how low of fuel is the "low limit" you would say is safe before the pickup tube is above the gas level? I know it's mounted quite low, just curious if driving on fumes = don't get on it. Driving it easy unless above 1/4 tank? 1/8 tank? Thanks!

Yes we usually recommend a quarter tank to be safe
