Description
The Radium Engineering FCST-X Fuel Cell Surge Tank (20-1992-01) is an advanced integrated fuel delivery system engineered to eliminate fuel starvation in high-performance street, track, and motorsports applications. Designed as the next evolution of Radium’s proven FCST platform, this compact system combines a lift pump and internal surge tank into one efficient assembly, simplifying plumbing while delivering consistent fuel flow during extreme driving conditions.
This configuration includes Walbro F90000274 fuel pumps, providing reliable high-flow fuel delivery for EFI and high-horsepower applications. The integrated surge system maintains a constant fuel supply even during hard cornering, acceleration, braking, or low fuel conditions commonly encountered in motorsports.
Manufactured from CNC-machined aluminum with anodized corrosion-resistant finishes, the FCST-X features improved fluid control, increased surge capacity, enhanced rollover protection, and faster serviceability compared to previous generations.
Features:
Integrated Surge Tank System
- Combines lift pump and internal surge tank into one compact assembly
- Eliminates complex external surge tank plumbing
- Designed to prevent fuel starvation during aggressive driving and racing conditions
High-Performance Fuel Delivery
- Includes Walbro F90000274 fuel pump(s)
- Supports EFI and high-horsepower fuel systems
- Provides stable fuel pressure under extreme load conditions
Advanced Fuel Control System
- Independent filtration chambers for improved fuel management
- Supports up to three internal fuel pumps
- Internal surge volume maintains fuel delivery during starvation events
Intelligent Fill System
- Three integrated one-way FKM fill valves
- Each valve flows 355 LPH for a total capacity of 1065 LPH
- Automatically balances fuel between surge tank and fuel cell
FCST-X Improvements
- Increased 2.6L surge tank capacity
- Faster pump access with simplified 9-bolt service design
- Integrated service handle
- Enhanced internal fluid control and rapid filling
- Improved rollover protection system
- Compatible with modern high-flow and brushless pumps
How the FCST-X Works:
- Lift pump pulls fuel from the fuel cell into the internal surge tank
- Surge tank feeds high-pressure fuel pumps
- Fuel returns from the regulator back into the surge tank
- Excess fuel safely overflows back into the fuel cell
- System maintains uninterrupted fuel delivery under high G-force conditions
This design prevents fuel starvation issues commonly experienced in motorsports and high-performance applications.
