Fuel system

One big issue I had with the Aeromotive A-2000.....and I am sure it would apply to any other real high volumn pump....

Don't use a filter on the inlet side with a smaller than 100 micron rating....or do as I did and use no filter at all......

My pump would cavitate after 10-20 seconds with an Earl's screw together cannister filter on the inlet side.......and the pump was about 1 foot from the fuel cell......with a -10 line and one 90 degree turn into the pump.

Vibrated bad and pressure was totally unstable......
Not enough fuel getting into the pump......
