OK guys need to upgrade my fuel pump on my 84 GSL, old one died, what is the consensus for mild mods. Still stock at this stage.

 

hi my buddy and i where recently awarded with a RacingBeat intake and Carb for our annaversary X car. we have been feeling that our fuel pump as well has taken a **** as we cannot get the car to start up. Any prefrence to fuel pump with this setting?

 

carter fuel pump 70gph I believe and 7 psi, (like 60 bucks from summitracing.com), and holleys 1-4 psi fuel pressure regulator is needed with the new pump to make the pressure in the range where you need it (like 20 bucks also from summit)

 

Mallory Comp110...lot quieter, no pulsing of fuel delivey.....

 

Why upgrade the fuel pump? I know guys running 600+CFM Holley's using the stock pump. I did and it was awesome.

 

Stock pump is fine for mild street driving and cruising, but will not keep up with the stock carb under sustained full throttle conditions. A high performance intake exacerbates the situation.

I use the aforementioned Carter / Holley setup on my autocross / race cars, although as noted it is not as quiet as preferred for daily driving. Just turn up the stereo.

 

I only hear my holley red at idle. After that, all I hear is exhaust.
