Re: Fuel system install *PICS*

Do you have any pics of the setup leading up to the rails? Also is the sump interfering with the muffler? Thanks!

None of the rails, have a few with the rear section of ex mocked up in the car, we had to change the Mufflex bend over the axle to move the muffler forward.

Hmm... if I went with an external pump I just might go with a sump however the problem is that the muffler is in the stock location. How loud is the Aeromotive pump?

Oh yeah, they may fall back on this little tidbit of info. from their website.

For long term driving applications where continuous run times exceed 30 minutes and fuel capacity
is less then 10 gallons, Aeromotive recommends the installation of a pump voltage control
module, Aeromotive p/n 16302.

I can hear it now when they get my old one back.

Speedy,
We have the pump controler installed.

What spec filter do you have in before the pump? If it's the 10 micron, it's got to go!!!!!!!! Only 100 micron before the pump, 10 micron after.

It's the 100M stainless wire filter. The paper 10M will not allow enought flow for the pump to live. The pump can't suck enough and runs dry THEN RUNS HOT.
The 10M is made for the pressure side.
