Better E- Fuel Pump

[abbey castro]

I replaced the cheapo electric pump that made a terible thumping noise for a Carter rotary vane one. The Carter is tall and it doesn't fit tucked into the frame like the old one. It doesn't look safe so I'll be extra careful with curbs! It is very quiet with humming sound when standing next to it. In the inerior there is no sound at all. There is no place to put it that sits lower than the tank, unless I make a brackets with hangers and those look so cheap from those I've seen. So I'll live with it.

In tank is pretty easy. Just use a sending unit from a V6 TBI car. That's what I'm using with a Racetronix 255lph pump for a TPI Camaro. If you're still running a carb, you could probably get away with using a stock pump for a TBI motor. They run pretty low pressure. I'd never trust an external electric pump for anything street driven

69 bucks vs at least 150+ in tank for a never street raced resto mod with a quadra-jet.

See if you can fit it up in front of the tank where the trunk floor goes vertical.

Man, if you're worried about a <$100 difference for a part that will leave you stranded on the side of the road, I think you're in the wrong hobby.
