James, your test port is inside the car?
I keep asking the CFR tech guys , if they have a test kit.
No they dont.
Maybe that s why they give me a hard time..
I cant stand rules that are made up for a problem that doesnt exist, that are less safe(extra leak point),and have no value to regional racers

I agree that the SM and all of the spec classes should run spec fuel, and be tested @ nationals.
Or.. all of the top three are tested every race. But to require a test port without a test kit is just not right.IMHO.

What I have made in the past for MK1 & MK2s is a banjo bolt on fuel dist. Drill a hole in the center (lathe makes it easy) then tap it to 1/8 or 1/4 npt.. The pegasis test ports i think are 1/8npt..??...? If its in the way, just put a 90deg male/female on it...
6 cars have it and no issues..
Also we run a seperate switch for pump that by passes the relay, those fail! Ususally at the 5 min signal, or when going to grid, or loading at 2am...

10 years and mine have never been used by tech... makes it easy to steal fuel out of race car for the lawn mower or snow blower... LOL!

This is all I have ever used mine for as well.
