I need a new fuel pump, help?
I've done a search and found that the Walbro unit is the most recommended. (255 liters/hr)
However, I cant get a Walbro for a few days.
I can get an updated turbo Transam fuel pump for $133 in two hours and have it installed tomorrow. Yes, I'm in a hurry.
Does anyone know what the flow rates are for the fuel pump in my 350 TPI (that I have) and the '89 turbo transam?
I need maybe about 10 to 20% more flow rate.
Will the turbo Transam pump be enough for me?
My stock fuel pump can not keep up with my fuel requirements (or it is slowly dieing).
