Good point, I just assumed a Pantera.

  Ken,

  As much as your answer is a true statement regarding a Pantera tank I
  kept my response more generic despite the lack of NPC in the title!
  Maybe I read too much (or too little) into "working on one of my cars",
  if it had been me I'd have written "one of my Pantera's" if it were
  such....

  I would think that a deep tank like the Pantera tank is a lot less
  susceptible to the inlet sucking air than most flat wide gas tanks?  Do
  the folks at tanks know what a Pantera tank looks like?  Can you
  position the pump with the inlet very close to the floor?

    I am working on one of my cars to install a fuel injection system.
    I purchased a "tanks" electric fuel pump that mounts in the gas tank.
    The company tanks is concerned that I don't have a baffle in the tank
    and said they will not honor a warranty because they are afraid that
    the pump will burn up due to running dry while cornering.
    Does anyone have experience with an electric pump in the tank?
    should I worry about this?
    Second question is I need to extend the electric lines in the tank
  down
    to the pump.
    Do I need to get special wires that can handle the fuels or do the
  std
    plastic coated wires work without a problem?
    Thanks Rich
