Anyone using a belt driven fuel pump? How well does it work compared to electric? Noise?? Starting???

If your running one, please post pic.

Thanks - Ron

Priming Sucks, also you have to be carefull on how you route your fuel lines, and you have to run a huge fuel pressure regulator.

Aeromotive Belt drive, can't hear it. Takes a second longer to start.

What kinda Hp are these things capable of supporting? Alcohol capable?

Atomic
5000hp on gas
2500hp on methanol

The atomic has a 1.25" inlet and a -12 outlet

Billet
3600hp on gas
1800hp on methanol

Billet has a -12 in and out.

2500 HP plus.... And yes most are alchohol capable. I've been looking into it for a while. It is definately going to be my next fuel system...

That sure does look like a Kenne Bell to me.

Why would you not want to run a mechanical fuel pump on a slightly used street car?

I run a similar setup on my Supra. We run a stock intank pump to prime the fuel system for starting. To get the mandrels, pulleys, belts, etc check out Peterson Fluid Systems http://www.petersonfluidsys.com/

right in the middle of this pic. I run the aeromotive billet one. Initial priming kinda sucks, but after that, it only takes a few seconds of cranking to start (if its been sitting overnight)

Put a one way fitting in it, makes it alot easier. Now aeromotive offers a primer pump setup but I didnt really find it necessary on my Lightning.

why would oyu run this? i understand for race only. but isn't the intake one fine enough?

Intank pumps should be avoided for high hp applications.

ok will i want 1000 flywheel and going to run electric sump pump. is that fine?

I'm not saying it can't be done. I just wouldnt do it.

I am also interested to hear about this..... There are an awful lot of people that swear by the dual intank pumps!

I am just interested in your reasoning.

when you make 1000+whp the huge external electric pumps tend to overheat and no real way to fit them in a fuel cell or tank or need special controllers to keep them alive so most go to a belt driven external pump for reliability and all out flow.
