i've been looking and these things are mainly in the $3-400 range... so i found this: http://www.jayracing.com/products.htm

something like $237 shipped. i really want to believe it. i do.

 

Wow, thats too good to be true. I know where I'm getting mine now!
Thanks for the link, you probably just saved quite a few people some dough.

 

I don't know who was trying to charge $400 for an 044. I have never seen them over $299. They usually run between $229 and $249.

 

oh ****....that was aussie dollars. i double checked after reading your post.

i guess they're just cheaper than i thought they were.

 

of the guys actually using this pump, are you using it as a sole pump, or using a feeder for it--like a carby low pressure pump before it or something.

"These may be installed in the fuel tank, but some custom fabrication will usually be required. In addition, feeding these inline pumps with another pump (in series), will boost the output of the Bosch 044 fuel pump even higher."

thanks for the link, but didn't even address my question. my question was about feeding into it with another pump.

 

as you could see in link, i am using bosch like primary pump, while stock TII pump is feeding surge tank

yea, but it's not the surge tank i'm asking about. i'm talking about boosting the output of the pump by pushing into it with another one. this is going in a streetcar and i don't have a whole lot of need for a surgetank...yet

but i just ordered one and the place said it wouldn't have any trouble if it were fed by even the stock fuel pump. i've got an upgraded denso i can squirt into it with.

 

i am kind of blind and dont see a point of feeding one pump by the other without having surge tank.....bosch pump itself is strong enought to be used intank alone, without any other pump in way...i used surge tank because of problems with pickup (starvation) at track (both drifting and lapping)

 

starvation isn't a concern on my commuter car. i was curious about boosting the output.

 

What "custom fabrication" is required to make these work intank?
anyone, anyone.....beuller?

 

Your first issue, will be finding an internal pick up filter...

 

I saw people saying that some ford fuel pump filters work

 

i am going to use one with a boost-a-pump setup.
