What ever you do in reference to the Fuel Pump. Stay away from the Holley Blue Pump!!!

It's so load thatyou can hear it a block away from your house.

I plan on changing mine out to a AirTex (sold by CarQuest) $46.00us this weekend. It will deliver up to 14psi so you will need a Fuel Reg to lower it down to whatever carb or EFI needs.

i.e. 4lbs stock and 6-8 Holley-Weber. The plus side to this pump is that it can be mounted Horri versus Vert. Makes for easy install.

Hey Thanks alot, well considering the car is 23 years I think it's time to change the fuel pump so it can have more fuel. Also do u have the part # for the pump from carquest? Also I have seen pepboys sell an aftermarket pump for like $35 but it's made by Facuet I think that's how it spell I not sure but can those pump work too? Anyone know about pepboys fuel pump? Khris

my holley blue doesnt sound that bad. my friends on the other hand. it all depends on how well you insulated. the facet(2) pumps are actually what racing beat recommended for their delllorto set up.

Really?I just use the old stocker 83 pump.I need to upgrade one day.I hear aeromotive is a loud pump too.Anybody other than DirectFreak running one?

Good Morning;

The CarQuest (airtex Fuel Pump #) is E8012S. The other thing cool about this pump is

that it comes with a Add'l filter and all the connectors and bracket.

Make sure you have or get a Pressure Regulater.
