Ground the fins clear off and everything is fine. Car actually rolls way better than I thought with the 9 inch and spool. I even pushed it back and fourth a few times to re park it with the wheel turned and it pushed just fine. When I cut the wheel real hard it locked though.

I found my Aeromotive pump on TurboBuick.com. Guy was asking $250 and it included the pre filter. I gave him $210 shipped. There always for sale on there. Yellowbullet always has them as well.

Re: adding return line to sumped tank? *Update/pics*

Oh yea, i dont want used unless it is from a swap meet where i can hit it to a battery first. Lowest i have seen is about 309 plus shipping, otherwise, a couple for 250 new but individuals decided to go another route.

Maybe when i get the cash for the pump i will find a deal, i always find deals when the cash is tied up for other things.

Re: adding return line to sumped tank? *Update/pics*

pro star 300 or pro star 500


get the built in filter.....and they're not cheap at all. I run the 500, supports 2000 hp, I guess I'll never have to upgrade lol

Re: adding return line to sumped tank? *Update/pics*

I haven't personally run them, but from general research and from working on a few cars with them I'm not a big fan of aeromotive. I have seen their pumps "lay-down" before dying, with 500+ rwhp of boosted EFI motor you will always discover that the hard way.

x2 on Magnafuel.

Re: adding return line to sumped tank? *Update/pics*

Well, i guess i will go with the cheaper when the time comes, otherwise, whats the worst that can happen? Blow up a junk yard 5.3? Not worried, everyone and their momma on TTF seems to be running mainly A1000, a few have the Magnafuel.
