Trying to determine if it should be MIG, TIG, Brazed or Soldered. I know MIG and TIG will damage the galvanized coating but give a more solid joint. Solder may not stand up to the vibrations of the fuel pump. Is brazing the best even thought it take more heat to braze than solder? Want to do it right the first time. Thanks for your help!

I had Rock Valley install and pressure test my setup - you can weld it at home if you want, but they did a great job. I dont think a surge tank is the end all option out there - my setup works great for over 3 years now with no issues.
