Being basically a cheapskate, both my cars have the old style Holley "Blue" GPH110 pumps. The 2 in my bracket car have been there for over 20 years now, & the one in my Stocker for 6 years. Other than replacing the end plate gasket on one pump in the bracket car 2 years ago, and both regulator diaphrams (dried up from sitting for 2 years) about 4 years ago, they have been trouble free. Hardly the "throw it away every year" situation that the BG ads in ND claimed, while thiers needs to be send back for a rebuild every 2 years.

Product Engineering and Magna Fuel are pretty much the same pumps. If my memory is right the owner of product engineering use to own magna fuel. Aeromotive is a good fuel system company also. I have the Magna Fuel on my car now, liked the return right at the pump and back to the cell. BG's are basically junk, cant get parts for them. Seems the folks at BG think there the only ones smart enough to fix them.

We were running a pair of black Holley pumps on the dyno. In 3 years, I've put about 5 pumps on it. They seem to fail at the worst possible time, always stopping a job that has to go right then. Rather than keep a spare, I ordered an Aeromotive system and solved the problem. Haven't even touched it once, plumbed it, wired it, and ignore it.

We put MagnaFuel on the orange car. It picked up a little on top, and became far more consistent.

I have a 15 year old product engineering that has been resealed once.

Take a look at Weldon's new Program for NHRA Racers.
