Must useless post ever Davin haha (PS what happened to the hatch) it should be an underlying assumption that I am aware this item was discontinued.

Thanks for all the guidance.

Check the classifieds section? Maybe someone has a used one for sale...

Or, you could probably have one custom made pretty cheap.

I made my own, but extended it by a few inches to clear my strut tower bar.

Thanks for the post Tom.

I might end up doing this as Vibrant has a ton of types of weld on lids I think with materials and everything it would come back to around 100$

yeah it's pretty cheap to just DIY - and you can get it exact for your motor setup.

Ours are a little more expensive, but in my opinion do a better job

We have a baffled tank, with a breathable top, so it not only acts as a remote filler but also a catch tank.

If you would rather relocate the tank, I can send a longer piece of hose, and unmade, then you can cut to size. Heat shrink around the hose is optional at no extra cost.

£199.99 + Postage.

Thumbs up

^ That's a nifty little design there. Had that been available when I did the ReSpeed filler neck, I would have taken the Atomic route instead.

Sorry you think it is expensive.

If you break down the compnents it isn't that expensive. The Goodridge hose is using 2 90 degree AN10 fittings. The mocal breathable cap is £10 :-o

the pot is a well fabricated aluminium pot with an internal baffle. We have also had our own water cut flanges with an AN10 weld on boss.

It is a complete pacakge. And as said combats not only the problem of relocating the filler neck (running a centralised LIM) but also acts as a catch tank which Mocal charge a good £100 for

I have seen one of these catch tanks in person, and whilst it is expensive, you can see where the money goes. the tank is custom built with internal baffles, and unfortuantly the AN fittings really ramp the cost up. You have to bear in mind that AtomicRex are making products for use in competition, and so are built to a spec, not a price point. This does mean that it will costs will be higher, but you are getting a very high quality product.
