Fuel Pump Recommendation

Chuck Westcott · 05-29-2012, 04:38 PM

All great pumps mentioned above.
Weldon Fuel Pumps by far is the best Pump out there and offers service second to none in the industry and a LIFETIME warranty and that's hard to beat. Just go to their website
(http://www.weldonracing.com/) and read the brief on the New Sportsman Pump. If your from division 1 then calll Ken Moses as He can answer any questions you may have or Just call Weldon and ask for Jim Craig.

1320racer,
I have spoken to John as well.
He comes highly recommended by some good carb builders.
What pump and filter of his have you tried or currently use?
I am concidering on upgrading to his product.

I run the PE 4450 combo pump and filter in my Firebird feeding 900+HP and ran the PE 4300 and his inline filter in my Chevelle with 700+HP under the hood.

Thanks,
I am looking at the 4510 combo with filter.

you all are out of your mind .... WELDON is the way to go....

The Weldon pump has HUGE advantages over the competitors
1) They pay Contingency (national & divisional)
2) They have a LIFETIME GUARANTEE on the pump and parts
3) The pumps that we run on our race cars are the same pumps that the US Millitary use for the hydraulic systems on the Drones that fly over our war zones. (they can NOT fail there)
4) The prices for their pump is competitive with every other pump manufacturer.

So why else would you choose ANYTHING ELSE?
For me WELDON for life

I replaced my BG500 with Weldon and won IHRA Div 1 Hot Rod Championship the same year. Weldon makes a great product.

Bricki--- probably that fuel line is too small and you might have a lot of bends in it which will either cause restriction or aeration of the fuel---- remember pressure is one thing volume is another---- try to take the pressure closest to the carb---also when setting the pressure with an Aeromotive remember that the engine MUST be running you cannot do it correctly with the engine OFF!!!! I don't think you need a return line with that low of a HP engine either.
