    External fuel pump recommendations needed

    Well my fuel pump took a crap. Pulled it out, seems that it wouldn't have been up to the task anyway after checking the specs.

    What I need, something with AN on both ends. The one I have right now was using -10 clamped on the inlet side and -8 screwed onto the outlet with an adapter.

    What pumps are recommended for our applications? I have -8 from the outlet to the rail. Goal is 350+ and support for more is always good. No in tank pump, car has a fuel cell.

    I found these a while ago, but I was mostly interested in their regulators which (I believe) wouldn't require a return from the fuel rail.

    Re: External fuel pump recommendations needed

    Any pump you want really. YOu can run Aeromotive, Holley, Walbro etc or even Bosch VW/Audi pumps.

    My current setup is a weak intank 255 pump then an inline Walbro 255 pump and I have more than enough fuel,

    There was a Bosch on the car, looks to have come from an '83 BMW 320i... Seems like a good pump but maybe not for 30psi...

    I was thinking aeromotive, but I'll take any recommendations.

    I'm sold if it's good enough for the contraption, I see it's half the price of the Aeromotive too...

    Thanks t3rse and Mike.

    I'm sure it's nothing special. But it is a Bosch pump, not a Walbro.

    I looked up the flow rate of the S60 pump and posted it a few days ago. IIRC it was slightly less than the 255. 220 I think actually.

    Sounds right, I remember it not being quite 255 but its been about 5 years since I enquired about one.

    Re: External fuel pump recommendations needed

    Ah I thought it was the same as the Walbro.

    Looking at the fittings I'm just worried about going from a -10 on the inlet to a -8 on the outlet. The walbro only has 10mm inlet and outlet, seems counterintuitive.
