picking a fuel pump

Q jets are very needy when it comes to volume. Make sure whomever you choose, talks about the design of the entire system. If you hang a pump and regulator on a bad set up, it won't make your car happy.
There are some great options out there. You get what you pay for.
Many years ago when we were first doing a stickshift Q jet in F Stick, the guy at Magnafuel asked what we were running and I told him a 400hp stocker with a Q jet and a stick. He said to spec it out like it made 1000hp. He wasn't kidding.
