I have another fuel system design idea that I would like to float by the
group.

I would like to recirculate the by-passed fuel to the header tanks located
on the Glastar's firewall but I'm concerned about fuel heat buildup.  My
intake manifold  will use a 3" thottle body that will be connected to a 3"
aluminum tube with a 90 degree bend where it enters the dynamic chamber.
What about circulating the pressurized fuel around the 3" intake tube by
welding on a larger tube (3.25" or 3.5") over the 3" tube and let the intake
ram air cool the fuel prior to injecting it into the engine.  Given the
volume of air going into the engine I don't think the intake air temperature
will rise much but it should keep the fuel cool.

Please fire away with you comments on this one.

The only problem I can see is the dynamic chamber :)
Why do you need alll that torque at 3000 RPM?
