Reccomend me some fuel pumps!!
edthedrummer - 12/8/14 at 04:39 PM

Howdy all,

Starting to plan my fuel system now, starting with an alloy racing fab locost tank, with an/jic fittings, to an alloy racing fab 1litre swirl pot, again with jic fittings instead of push ons. It's for a duratec install. I can source a fuel rail with jic fittings easily enough, but what fuel pumps, both lift and high pressure do people reccomend, that can be fitted with an/jic unions to accept proper fittings?

Thanks for your help!!

I went for a nissan skyline pump, from fuelpumpsonline.co.uk.

It's an in-tank pump and a high-pressure one, so it shouldn't need a low list pump and swirl pot to feed the injectors. It's also rated hugely for the HP I require, so should be well over-specced.

I paid less than £100 for it, IIRC.

There's a picture of it here (click me).

I'm also looking for a lift and high pressure pump, same setup as OP. Using an Elise Tank so not keen on going direct to fuel rail from tank, especially round left handers.

Bosch 044 HP Pump and the Weber Carb pump. The Weber is meant to be almost silent which is much better than the noise my Facet pump makes.

Mine uses a Facet red top as the lift pump (same pump I used when it had carbs) and a Sytec high pressure pump which I bought cheap from a friend of a friend who was changing to an in tank pump.

10 years on no issues.
