I know yours can flow 300lph but does it have a pressure rating when acting against restriction? (If you know what I mean!)

That's essentially stock car power levels on E85...Can two of them be used like with your twin 1000hp setup?I dont know of any of our cars running under 300rwkw on E85.

I know yours can flow 300lph but does it have a pressure rating when acting against restriction? (If you know what I mean!)I'm sure KPM will correct me if i'm wrong but generally pumps are rated at 3 bar so if running @ 4bar (as per our cars) the flow rate will be reduced.Complete thumb suck here but i'd estimate if these pumps are rated at the 3bar @ 300lphr they would be in the 240/250 range @ 4bar, however if they are rated @ 4bar and 300lph two of these pumps would be the bargain of the century!I get the impression out and out horsepower is not the ultimate goal with these pump, more guaranteed reliability on E85, Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89201-kpm-e85ethanolpetrol-fuel-pump/page/2/#findComment-1500856 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Dave, sounds like a decent option for those not wanting a surge setup! 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89201-kpm-e85ethanolpetrol-fuel-pump/page/2/#findComment-1500978 Share on other sites More sharing options...
