The pump wires are stripped.
Now the stripped wires are terminated.
The terminated wires are attached to their corresponding studs on the tank top.
The controller for the BKS1000 brushless pump was mounted on the rear bulkhead. Brushless pumps need controllers to electronically control the field, like the commutator on a conventional pump. By doing this with solid-state electronics, the pump is a lot more efficient, quiet, and reliable with no mechanical switching parts to wear out.
With the Radium Engineering Fuel Hanger ready to install, we next removed the OEM fuel hanger, as you can see the stock hanger has no surge tank function.
We removed the fuel level sender unit from the stock hanger.

What a guy. Cameo by Steve Mitchell.
Radium makes some great looking pieces. Very well designed and machined.
Mike, any chance you guys have done or can do a “behind-the-scenes” at Radium? It would be interesting to learn more about their product development and manufacturing processes.
We think that’s a good idea too!
Awesome, can’t wait to see what you come up with!
would the BKS1000 be compatible with an AEM v2? I dont see anything indicating it wouldnt be – just asking (::IDK::)
It can be paired with any other pump, it just needs its own controller.
I’m thinking of putting the radium surge on my GTR. My only concern is what will replace the post filter?
Radium has one
