Re: fuel pump question

You can use a TPI pump or a Walbro 255 lp,but I read where walbro sold out. And it seems now that alot of people are haveing trouble with them.

Re: fuel pump question

i was lookin at http://www.showmetheparts.com/airtex/# and the replacements show that the tpi pumps have a lower psi shut off range than the stock lt1 and pumps less gallons per hour.... so i guess this is still the question of what should i do- im jus throwin the facts out there cause they don't match up however i understand that doesnt mean they wont work. plus i think for me to get my hands on a tp1 pump will cost me almost as much as i can get a 94 v6 fuel tank and sending unit for

do the v6 4th gens use the plastic fuel lines like the lt1cars?
