            • Installing a fuel cell too, but adding a fuel level sending unit in a stealth way..

              made the bracket to mount to the bottom of vent fitting and wires come up out
              thru the vent tube

              installed

              wires hidden in vent tube

              • If you can put some sort of a rubber gasket between the pump and the frame to minimize the noise. I would also suggest a Aeromotive or Weldon speed controller make sure to run a good feed 10ga.

                  Not to worried about noise, the V-1 is loud as hell. Lol I have 10anto feed and 8an return. One day i might and the controller.

                    • Are you running the power through the inertia switch?

                      I have a Racetronix Fuel Pump wire relay harness set that I am not using if you are not 100% happy with what you have. I would let it go for the cheap.

                      • Yes, I am using the factory fuel pump power wire to trigger the 30amp relay. The battery is in the trunk
                        too, so there is a short lead from that to a 30amp circuit breaker to the relay then to the pump, all 8gaugeto power wire with same 8gaugefor used as a ground.

                        • i'd personally stay away from the aeromotive speed controller, i still wonder if mine had something to do with my broken piston. when i got the motor put back together after i re-built it mine wouldn't cycle to the high speed. i ripped it off and am now just running full speed full time

                            Interesting. Did you switch yours to full speed while at the track? I assume you would have. What pump? What version of the controller was it? Aeromotive made some changes to the old red version. I ask cause I have one planned to go in. Already bought and paid for.

                            • We installed an Aeromotive controller(red) on Fst86GT's car with an A2000. It works great. Has the RPM control and full power overide on a switch.

                                mine was the older version.

                                i had mine set with 2 activation methods, rpm and boost (via a hobbs switch to the manual switch). it'd kick the pump to full speed over 4k rpm or over 1psi.
