Default What replacement pump for a .98Z ????????

I'm starting to have fuel pressure issues @ WOT and it looks like the pump is on the way out. For now the car will only be run with a few bolt-ons and add a H/C pkg or stroker down the road.

Is the walbro 255 too much for a car with bolt-ons?

Or should I just drop the $$$ on the racetronix setup since the cost is the same as a stock replacement from GM parts direct?


Thanks!

Yup!

BUT you should still have a good idea of what you are doing as fuel and electricity are not something to be taken for granted.

I know what i'm doing when it comes to fuel and electricity, I was just concerned with how the pump is mounted to the sender assembly.

I ordered one from Thunder Racing earlier today.

That is laid out in the instruction booklet and is shown in our ad.

the instruction manual is great, tells you step by step, wire by wire, and basically screw by screw.
