At risk of looking like a complete fool, and being banished, i will defent my claim...
you will be running 40+psi through fuel lines which are old, and intended for considerable less psi...???
also... you onle need about 1 or so litre for the surge tank?? so if you crack and drop 1L of fuel (id suggest not putting it near the exhause by the way), the pump from the boot at low pressure is pushing less fuel into the engine bay. If you have a 40+psi pump in the boot, (or under it) you would be pushing heaps of fuel into the engine pay if you cracked a pipe... so you would have more than 1L in there.. so wouldn't you be more screwed? PLUS... the whole point of surge tanks (or at least part of it) is cause there is no longer fuel bowls at the carbie. now with my twin solex, there is a fair bit of fuel in these bowls anyway.
Thats my arguement. as for legalities, well, if a surge can't be legalised in the engine bay, how the hell do they put these huge water traps in there?
