Get a Walbro 305. Do it once and forget it.

I have the high press. pump and no AFPR. it works great.

1racerdude, I'll ask for him. where do you get a walbro 305 and how much do they cost? I got my pump from new era cause its cheaper then anywhere else I found it.

Re: Which walbro 255, high pressure or low pressure?

LOL, I asked that exact same question about 3 weks ago....I was told, go with hi pressure if you think you might ever go with a power adder. For NA, lo press is fine. Are you ordering the wire harness kit too? I havent decided if I'm going with pump only or pump & wire kit. I hear a lot of guys say they have voltage drop over the old harness, but I'm pretty good with wiring & may just re-terminate the existing harness

The pump was a #340(my mistake) and is no longer offered.Walbro makes a pump to replace it though but it isn't a 340.
