Anyone????

depends on how the pumps are setup really...
If one pump was to run under light load and the other to come under boost for example, you'd need to wire the second pump to a hobbs switch. But if the pumps are setup to feed 1 rail each, you'll probably want them running all the time.

I run both parallel into a block then into a -8 feed line to the front where they split again post filter. I ditched the one rail each idea because of simplicity, not wanting to run 2 filters... The downside of constant on is this is very taxing on charging system at low rpm. Even with FD alternator.
People experimented with staging the pumps, but it's easiest to just run both continuously. This way it saves check valves and the like.

I don't have pics, mine doesn't quite clear the stock level sensor so i have been running without one for a while. It's definately possible to fit it in there tho(even inside the stock baffle tank thing)
Wire them in parrallel, so both red wires together, and both black wires together. I used the stock bulkheads, sacrificing the low fuel level sensor and passing 1 positive wire for each pump. I have 1 bulkhead left fot the stock level sender when I reinstall it. You can run 1 big power wire from a single (40A) relay to the pumps. I run a 30 amp fuse and it seems enough for 2 walbros.

I think i am going to run a two seperate fuel feed line (each line going to each fuel rail). Now do I have to have 2 individual return lines?? or can i just use a y-fitting and run 1 return line to fuel tank?
Also with 2 seperate feed lines, am i gonna need two fpr??
btw..nik...thanks for the info for wiring up the dual fuel pump..
