Re: WALBRO PUMP HANGERS

Most people only need dual 255. Good to 1000 whp on most v8's on gas. 750-800 maybe on e85

It be very difficult to do triples on a stock 3rd gen tank. Opening up top is smaller than 4th gen

A single walbro 400/450 e85 rated pump is awesome for a single on gas up to near 900 whp on gas i would say. Depends on pressure.

Re: WALBRO PUMP HANGERS

Are you going to be offering a single pump offering as well? I recall that I had to get my Walbro machined down on the end to accept the GM size fuel sock, so if you can either pre-machine it or include the proper sized sock that'd be swell.

Re: WALBRO PUMP HANGERS

Don't think I'll need the hanger, as long as there's no problems using my standard GM sending unit. It's one of the "nice" $400 A/C Delco ones (i.e. not a spectra one which I've heard are pretty hit and miss). The Walbro I have in there right now seems to fit fine.
