I'm putting together a Procharged "blow through" engine (505cid) and was wondering what kind of fuel pumps you guys are running?
The engine will be fairly radical but still see some street driving.
Any reccomendations on an electric pump that can supply enough fuel and still live on the street?
Thanks in advance, BP

A1000 is about it if it is making any power at all

Plenty of good options... Aeromotive A1000 or Eliminator, SX Industries (which I prefer to Aeromotive when it comes to flow-through style pumps), Magnafuel, Weldon.
Magnafuel & Weldon pumps are really nice but also big $$$.

I'm running a magna fuel pro star 500 with an Aeromotive 13202 reg. Fit n forget till you get to 1500hp then it's belt drive.

Thanks for the info guys!
I was considering the Aeromotive "Eliminator" pump. I also just started looking at the "Weldon" pumps (DB2025-A). They are expensive but it seems like you could shoot for the moon with one of those! I always feel a little better with some "overkill" built in!

Too much overkill is bad though. Excess fuel flow can lead to fuel heating & vapor lock. That's why there are fuel coolers & PWM speed controllers out there.
Another option is to run a smaller primary pump and have a secondary pump turn on via TPS % or manifold pressure.

A properly designed return style fuel system takes care of those problems.
"Overkill" is always good! It rules!:firefire:

A magnafuel 500 pump is designed for continous use without a controller. The fuel flow is what helps cool it. I think they are a great piece of kit.

How much HP and boost are you going to make? A MagnaFuel Pro Star 500 (used with a Aeromotive 13202 return style regulator) has been proven to 1300 HP and 22 lbs of boost. It has also proven to be reliable on the street.
Beyond that I would consider a belt drive pump. Several guys on the TurboMustangs forums are running belt drives on their "street" cars with no problems.
Just my 2 cents.

I'm running the A1000 and 13202 regulator. No problems.

I running an Eliminator now but i thinking about stepping up to a Weldon. Ive heard mixed results about the reliability of a Weldon for street use without a step down box and thats comming from a Weldon dealer. My car does limited street driving so i dont think it would be an issue for me but thats something you should think about before shelling out the big buck.

Aeromotive makes a great set up! A1000 with the boost sensitive regulator (part #13202).:6gears:
