R1 BEC Fuel Tank, Pump, etc.

My car had a standard alli carb tank fitted which I've since removed. I'm installing an 06 R1 engine and was wondering what the best fuelling solution is.

I'm guessing I will need an injection tank fabricated, but what goes where (fron tank to TB's)?

I have the 06 R1 fuel pump - is this of use to me (I'm concerned that it will not deliver adequate pressure from the back of the car to the TB's in the front)?

Any advice would be appreciated as I know very little about the best way to make fuel travel to the engine!

Thanks Chris.

This may seem like a daft question... but what does the level sensor do?

Also, you mentioned a 'return pipe'. Is this the return of excess fuel from the TB's? If so, does this mean the pump has a 'swirl pot' type capability?

Chris,

Can you describe where you would locate the integral swirl pot into the petrol tank.

Also, would the R1 fuel pump not hang pretty low from tank?
