Anyone use the Holley Fuel Pump?
Im looking for a fuel pump, something as close to plug and play as possible. I was looking on thunder racing and saw the holley FP for preaty cheap. Has anyone used one of these before? Otherwise does someone know where to get the racetronix kit? I didn't see it on Thunder. I want the cheapest way out because I am not pushing gobs of horsepower and don't plan to anytime soon. Any help or reccomendations would be great. Thanks.

Re: Anyone use the Holley Fuel Pump?
The racetronix system may not be the cheapest solution out there, but it truly is plug and play and the quality is unsurpassed. I would spend the extra money and get this system. I have been extremely impressed with my set up so far.

Re: Anyone use the Holley Fuel Pump?
Where do you get the racetronix kit, and how much does it cost?

Re: Anyone use the Holley Fuel Pump?
If I want just the pump, and not the whole entire fuel system do I get that one that is like $160.00?

Re: Anyone use the Holley Fuel Pump?
Can someone please confirm that this is the right thing to order (from thunderracing.com) to just replace the pump.
135-FLT1-FPA Racetronix 255 LPH High Pressure Fuel Pump Assembly, in-tank wiring & installation hardware, LT1 F-body $160.00
Is this what I need?

Yeah, that's the one. I want to see if anyone has even bought the Holley and what they thought? Looks like it's all the same thing to me.

I bought the walboro a few years ago for my V6. No problems with that one, although I didn't have it for very long.

I've used the Holley for the last 2 years. No problems.

Did it fit right in or did you have to do some modding?

Sort of. I can't exactly remember why, but for some reason I didn't use the tube/container or whatever it is that the pump goes into. I'm thinking it didn't fit inside correctly or it may of had to do w/ having to glue it back together and waiting for it to dry. I was out of town and had to leave the same day. I just used hose clamps and wrapped it around the brace for the tube/container. From then on it was plug/play.

That's what I figured. You'd have to ditch the bucket and I would really want to keep that. Think I'm going with the racetronix kit.

Holly fuel pump
I installed one in mine about 4 years ago in the bucket with stock suction filter and glued the top back with locktite 404.
