Question FD pump and gauge pod Q

I been searching all over town and on the net and have yet to come across a 60mm single gauge pod. Anyone know where I may pick on up rather than jimmy rig a 52mm=>60mm? Also FD pump.. did a little research and havent' came across its hp handling capacity. At what point would it be impractical to use on instead of a walbro. I'm not planning on building a mad HP monster. Just curious when it would not be impractical not to have one modding stage wise. Anyone care to enlighten me?

Can't help you on the pod, but general wisdom is that the FD pump will do up to 300HP in the FC.

Use the large gauge sizes - 2-5/8"?&nbsp It's a little larger than 60mm, but you can always "shim" the gauge to fit.&nbsp My typical method is to use two sides sticky foam tape insulation available from most Home Depot type stores.

FD fuel pump unly gives you like 10-15% more capacity over stock Turbo Ii fuel pump.&nbsp You're better off getting the Walbro - yes, the Walbro outflows the stock FD fuel pump.
