I met Jeff Stacy from Aeromotive @ last years PRI. His product knowlege and the quality of they're fuel components convinced our sponsor to use they're product line.

Areomotive suggested to us that we use "micron filters" on all our fuel systems as opposed to paper or element filters. The additives contained in "race fuels" can breakdown the paper filters and the adheisives used to hold them together, thus contaminating your carburator or fuel injection system. Makes sense!

I've got (2) bad BG 400 pumps and a 2-port regulator.
BG wont sell rebuild kits, they want you to send them back to them!
They're stuff seems to self destruct after a few seasons!

I've heard from other racers about having to send remanufactured BG products back a second time!

Mark, buy the Aeromotive stuff, your fuel distribution problems will go away!

I have had tremendous luck withe MagnaFuel stuff. Its quiet, less vibration, more consistent pressure. Its field serviceable, and at a reasonable clost, even the brushes are replaceable without dissassembling the unit

I have a pump for EFI (running at 60psi), maybe give them a call and see what they recommend. I believe I talked to Kyle last time. Also running a before/after filter.

Magnafuel and Aeromotive BOTH are tied as the best fuel pump companies out there. Have had the magnafuel pump and regulator excuse me pressure control unit (thats what they call it) on my car now 3 years with out a bit of problems. One thing i would do if you get the magnafuel and run 16 volt system is turn the bypass pressure down some.
