Fuel pump question for the V8 guys, what type and where do you mount?

I'm planning out the surgery on the car and basically am making a paper outline of what goes where (and what gets cut)...

Thanks,

Bill P.

use the money to buy a Dedenbear electric water pump


Guy,

Last time I checked (albeit several years ago).. these where not for continous use. Even the drag racers where having issues with them after a years use of between rounds "cooling". Take into consideration that they only had to move water a total of 4 feet compared to our 26 feet and I question the reliability of ANY electric pump for this application. I know they work.. I have seen it.. but for how long ?

When I got my Dedenbear tank, they told me their pump was not for continuous use but that was maybe 10 years ago. Harry has run the Meiziere for over a year reliably as well as at ThunderHill driving to and back. I'm sure elect pumps can work but they're not common...

I saw a potentially more reliable brushless type at SEMA - Stewart Pumps
