After reading the fuel pump thread,..decisions


Okay, I read Procharged's thread on the fuel pumps. I WAS going to go w/ and inline booster pump, but i've changed my mind. Now, my question is, what should I do? I want to go w/ a setup so that I won't have to worry about anything, but I want to stay on a budjet. My mods are in my sig and on my page, but keep in mind, I may eventually go to even bigger injectors and put on my 15lb pulley. I want something that I can install rather easily too, What should I do? Please adress pump suggestions, line suggestions (is stock sufficient for mow) and installation dificulties. Why do some of you have lines coming from the bottom of the tank, I don't have to do that if I get a intank replacement do I? Thanks a lot. -Justin remember, I don't want to go too crazy w/ cost. i'd love too keep it in the low $100 range. Also, how hard is it to put the pump in the tank? thanks -Justin

Justin ,there is no prolem going with an inline pump,like the ones that come with the supercharger kits.My screw up consisted of Me going way overboard.At the time of my perchase no one made an intank to support big HP levels,no Walbro does and going with an intank is much better than anything else I can think of.Walbros intank cost just$100!!!,and the installation kit is only $10,its a very good deal.It will support up to 630hp at the crank,and more with a boost a pump.Get it.Here is the # to call,Its Walbros,the GM tech line ask for info on the Gss340M.The guy you need to talk to is Jim Rosenstangel. He's the GM engineer. His
E-mail is Jrosenst@US.TIAutomotive.com.
You can phone him @ 517-872-7387.Hope this helps you out,trust me on this one,this is the better way to go,Ive spent alot to figure it out.
