Fuel Pumps

Recommended Posts

What option's do we have as fas as fuel pump's go, I'd like to try and stick to an intake pump if it's capable of supporting 4oo-45orwkw. What sort of power will the walbro unit support, if not what other options do we have.

Any other solution's that'll support 4oorwkw other than a surge tank.

Just add an 044 inline with a walbro im runnig that setup with no problems. When your going near 400 it is just insurance to have a surge tank a motor is much more expensive

This is the setup I had in the XR6T.

A few of us have found that with the GSS341 and 320+ you would get fuel cut at full throttle with anything less than 3/4 of a tank. It would be OK in short bursts, but on the 1/4 mile it would happen at about 3/4 track.

If you're aiming for 450, I wouldn't be relying on an in-tank.

I have just looked into this myself. I have a surge tank with an bosh 044 pump on it. This is filled by the standered fuel pump. I also would be consered with the motor running out of fuel while you are punting arround hunder high rwkw's this is why you have a surge tank. A lot cheaper than a motor detination when you run lean with 16 psi of boost.

Give Con a call at C V Performance and he should be able to help you out with all of your concerns.

Hey Mate,

In my phoon I'm running two external bosch 044's plus a custom three litre surge tank at the left rear quarter panel, plenty of space there. Haven't had any problems with fuel supply combined with the Seimens Deka's and fuel regulator.

I'm running 384rwkw and will be pushing past 400 in the near future and can't see any issues with my set up handling big power.

Any reason why you want to stay away from a surge tank setup?
