    Default Different fuel tank advise needed please

    I have many fuel tanks at work for my nova but to be honest I'm unsure what is from what nova . After seeing a Gsi tank on here for sale I'm a bit confused . I have 2 tanks from sr's and also a gte tank and recently bought a Gsi tank .
    The gte tank and Gsi tank ?? Both have a unit bolted into the top with a two pin plug but my sr tanks don't . Is this correct ? The Gsi tank I've seen for sale just looks like my sr tanks .

    I know on my sr's that the pump runs on the cam lobe but isnt the gsi/gte pump a separate mounted electric pump?
    If so what is the part bolted into the top of my tanks ?

    your right about the gte/gsi pump being external but they have got a swirl pot in them i think and the one with a built in pump is a spi tank but you can fit a daewoo mpi pump which will run a gte/gsi engine an a let/xe aswell dont hold me to it as i could be wrong but your best pinching the pic from the for sale thread and posting up some of your own

    Sorry to hijack the tread but does anyone know about different positions of the fuel filler neck pipe on tanks, I have two tanks where they are in fundamentally different positions.
