I recently purchased a vaporworx system from a distributor. I told them I wanted the system where I only have to run one fuel line. I received a tank and a 2010 camaro fuel pump. I gave my car builder all the parts I received. He told me that I am missing a sensor, module, and a harness. Called and told the distributor and they sent me a harness. Called them back and told them I think I still need a module and a sensor. They told me that I don't need the module and the sensor with the 2010 camaro fuel pump. So my question is does that fuel pump keep a constant 58psi? And the harness I got does it go to the fuel pump or where(I'll post a pic or a part number when I get home.)

Here's my response to your email:

The Gen5 LS3 fuel module is intended to be used as a single-line system.

There are two ways to control the fuel pressure for this fuel module. First, when using battery voltage and a traditional relay system, the pressure regulator in the fuel module needs to be changed to a 58psi type. For that a 4th-gen Camaro fuel pressure regulator is used along with a VaporWorx adapter. The second is to use a VaporWorx electronic control system. When using the electronic system the pressure regulator is not changed. Information on the electronic systems can be found here http://vaporworx.com/speed_control_systems.htm Both have proven reliable in the LS3 fuel module.

Depending on who manufactured the tank it may have the 58psi regulator installed. The regulator is located on the base of the module. If the regulator has a hose nipple it is a 58psi type. If not, it should be the OE 88psi.

I hope this helps. If you would like me to talk to Brian I'd be happy to do so.

Thank you for choosing VaporWorx.

Regards,

Carl

Some additional info:

The term "fuel module" is used to describe what may be considered the "fuel pump" on modern cars. The fuel module contains within it a fuel pump.

Depending on how the tank was ordered it could have been ordered with several different fuel level sensor arrangements. If you can post a photo of the top of the tank I may be able to help identify what you have.
