Fuel pump

RobertD · 01-20-2001, 02:17 PM

Guys, My fuel pump gave up today. I'm looking to replace it with a BBK 110lph. Any experience? Should I stick with any brand?

The cars getting a set of Edelbrock heads next month and it's basically stock right now.

changing the pump is real easy..drop the tank, and there it is. I'd go with the larger aftermarket..as it won't hinder stock performance, and it will support higher hp in the long run.

Ditto, run a minimum 155 or 190. If you even think about a blower in your future, do the 255. It won't hurt on a stock motor, and you won't have to do it later. The cost between any are little. 190 is good for 300 or more, and most stangers get that with heads, cam and normal bolt ons. Blower cars should have a 255. I wish I did that, but I got a good deal on the 190 way before the blower.
The Ford Racing ones are more expensive only because they come with bigger fuel lines (only from tank to filter- not extremely nec.) and are a complete replacement. The cheaper ones don't include more than pump and filter sock, which you put in place of the stock pump cage. Either way is fine, the Ford is cleaner looking and less work.
