This item is a custom fabricated surge tank (reservoir tank) for a fuel injection setup.  It is made of heavy wall 6061 aluminum and the complete tank (empty) weighs 18 lbs.  The tank measures 12 1/2" L  x 12 1/4" W x 12 1/4" H.  Capacity is approximately 5+ gallons.  Fuel level is controlled by twin Holley fuel bowls.  Fittings at the top of the tank are for vent and return.  

Here's a typical system layout for a door-slammer with a rear-mounted main fuel tank. Refer to the diagram in the photos section. When the fuel tank is in the back, a separate forward-mounted reservoir is highly recommended to ease priming and minimize system restrictions. With such a separate tank, an electric automotive fuel pump (1) and filter (2) feed fuel from the main tank to the surge tank through a Holley float bowl (3) that is used to regulate the tank's fuel level. The surge tank needs a vent (4), preferably exiting outside the engine compartment.  Fuel is drawn from the surge tank by an engine-driven injector pump (5), which delivers the main fuel feed to the barrel valve (8) through a high-flow inline filter (6) and shutoff valve (7).
