First I hear of the Aeromotive issue...

But, just in case, I am glad I have the "A" pillar
Fuel Pressure Gauge.

ive got a similer setup on my first gen ,

3/8 pickup in tank to a carter pre pump (similer to a holley red) then into the surge tank, then 2 -10 feeds to the pumps (bosch 550hp's) then 2x -6 feeds, one to the primary rail and 1 to the secondary rail, then they both go into the 3rd fuel rail and out of that into the regulator then back to the surge tank by a 3/8 return,

it will hold as low as 20psi fuel pressure, and will be hopefully enough fuel for everything i want to do,

ill get some pics

so street/long-term reliability is the issue here which is leading people to try out the dual pump setup....

anyone tried the paxton?

nyt- what pumps are you using now and how are they working out for you?

Zero at the moment. I am just finishing my swap. Should be a mild (15psi) 400rwhp on pump gas when tuned.

I did the dual cause of the noise! The Aeromotive is a damn loud! It sounds like a compressor firing up! Plus i did some math a long time ago and the duals would flow more than the aeromotive, nic do you know what all your boys from rx7.com run i was wondering about that.

In the aeroquip book its a flare to braze unplanted is that the fitting i would want to use? Since the nipple is ment for a 3/8 hose than a 3/8ths tube would probably be to small so ill probably want a 1/2 inch tube with a -6 male. Just wanted to see if i was thinking in the right direction!
