fuel pump holley carb

I just got a racing beat intake and holley carb 600cfm. Racing beat says I need a pump running 20gph at 6psi I cant find one running such a low gph in jegs or summit, does anyone know where the part number or where I could get one? Thanks

Get a carter either a 5psi so you do not have to set psi or go a 5-7 and set a regulator at 6psi. You do not have to run 20gph heck I am running a Aeromotive pump rated at 150gph with a 650 holley. I used to own the RB intake and little holley and used the 9psi carter with a regulator with no problem dead headed. I used a carter because the Holley pump is so noisey it drives you crazy.

Pressure isint important as long as its more than what the carb needs, thats what FPR's are for. Use a pump that is rated MINIMUM 20gph and youll be fine. ,mrmasda your in O town too?

a note on the Carter pump, too ... it's just as noisy as the Holley.
