Fuel Pump Question

[blukangoo]

I´m going to need a new fuel pump.
I was looking online for one and don´t know which one to buy.

Here are the ones available over here.
Edelbrock 110 Gallons per hour
Edelbrock 130 GPH
Holley 80 GPH
Holley 110 GPH
Holley 130 GPH

This isn´t going to be a race truck and it will also not be a daily driver.
I think the 80 Gallon will be enough.
What do you all think?

It depends on what carb your running really ... most require about 7 PSI fuel pressure if memory serves me right ....

What carb you running/motor ?

[JHART]

nevermind .... just saw your signature there .... i'm tired.

80 GPH will work.

Thanks for the answer.
I am running an Edelbrock 1407 750CFM

[JHART]

750 CFM .... you might want to go with a higher GPH ... the 80 will work but with a 750 CFM and a 80 GPH pump you might not get what the carb needs.

[blukangoo]

I think I will go for the 80.
On some other sites they say for normal driving the 80 will be just right.

[JHART]

Yea but a 750 cfm carb isnt for normal driving ..

Your website and the pictures are great! I really got a kick out of the changing images of the cab and bed being lifted off. What's up with the Playmobil website? But I liked the race car offering....need to get one of those for a grandson. Thanks for the links to your website. Everybody should check it out, if for no other reason than to see what all you guys have done to meet the German regulations for registering your vehicle as well as meet your own demands for perfection. You are to be congratulated for your attention to detail.

I was gonna sign your guestbook, but it wouldn't show up as I entered the blank spaces.

Oh, I'm guessing that the 80GPH pump will be good enough, unless you are headed to the autobahn to take on a few Bimmers, MB's and Porche's, along with that Ford Mustang we see in the U.S. in an ad that has it being shipped to Germany so it can be driven "at speed".

It was fun making the pictures.What's up with the Playmobil website? The text there sais: If you landed at the wrong site and its not fun any more, click here. When you click on it it takes you too Playmobil and it´s supposed to be fun thereBut I liked the race car offering....need to get one of those for a grandson. I´m going to get one for me. :-)Thanks for the links to your website.

I put the links in my signature so people could read through it. As soon as I get it registered I will put up a nice long Build thread on the board with before and after pictures. I´m in the middle of the modifications to the electrical system right now. They want us to change so much stuff that it isn´t original anymore.You are to be congratulated for your attention to detail. Thanks again!

I was gonna sign your guestbook, but it wouldn't show up as I entered the blank spaces. I guess I don´t understand what you mean there. You have to at least put a name in there and a text, it should work.

My truck is going to be for cruising and not for racing. I´ll leave the racing to our 73 Camaro that is going to be getting his stroker kit put in over winter. We see cars with american plates over here once in a while. There isn´t too many places where you can fly on the autobahn anymore. Germany is one big traffic jam.

I have decided to get the 80 and I talked to a mechanic today that fixes US Cars and he said the carb is way too big for my 327. Either I try to find a 500CFM Carb somewhere or change the needles in the 750 I have now.
I think I will just change the needles. A new carb costs too much.

Holley red works great.
