I did the Vulcan Draw straw and Big line kit that goes from the canister to the injection pump. Works very well.

If u got the knowledge, do a sump instead so u dont run into the 1/4 tank crap. No matter what anyone says, u still run into the 1/4 tank fuel problem with a Draw Straw.... the sump eliminates that problem

I have the Vulcan Draw Straw V. and don't have the 1/4 tank issue. I don't even have a 1/16 tank issue! I thought about a sump, but I don't need an extra 2.5" protrusion out the bottom of my tank.

I used the original Vulcan draw straw and on 1/4 pass boost launch the fuel would shlosh so much that sometimes i would loose fuel pressure becuase there was no fuel so this time around immma do a sump. I was worried about protrusion to cause im a lowered 2wd so imma heat and bend a piece of steel around the sump to protect it from the elements
