I'm thinking more along the lines of 20ft of 3/8" hose, a inline electric pump mounted under the belly, with 10ft of electric line leading to a cigarette lighter plug. Build a box under the bed of the truck to keep it all clean. Should be a simple matter to add a T into the fuel line before it hits the high pressure pump. An added benefit is that it gives you an additional chance to detect water in the fuel. You can't go flyin' if the watered down gas killed your engine before you got to the airport. 8*) -- http://www.ernest.isa-geek.org
