Title: One way fuel valve help needed Post by: leec on April 21, 2010, 11:30:04 am I want to keep my original fuel tank in my 56 oval race car.
Looking at the regs for uk drag racing I need to have a one way fuel valve/breather from the tank. Someone recommended a valve that i could instal in the cap (drill through the cap) Any one suggest a suitable valve? Also, can it just vent to atmosphere or do i need a line from it?

For some reason tech at avon park gets really upset at vented caps,you can drill the filler neck and install a "fuel cell bulkhead fitting" then the roll over valve fits onto that,then use some hose or hard line to vent it outside the car I used one like this http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/15363/10002/-1 or this might be simpler http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/15361/10002/-1 cheers richie Title: Re: One way fuel valve help needed Post by: leec on April 21, 2010, 20:19:16 pm Thanks Richie,
will the bulkhead fitting seal ok on the curved part of the petrol tank filler neck? Do you have a photo of your set up? Lee |
