Default Fuel pump help

Hey guys back at it. Have me a 68 gto resto-mod I put a low mileage lt1 in out of vette. Installed a exterior fuel pump and it's noisey as f*ck!!! Anyhow I want to replace it. It's louder than open headers. Any recommendations? Has to be electric, has to be hell of alot quieter, prefer a warranty but not needed, and is inline or exterior.

External pumps are loud, especially high psi ones for efi. Have you considered a intank option?

Had good luck with noise/longevity with a simple Carter electric
make sure and isolate/rubber mount it. They will all make some noise but yes some are obnoxious. Carter were the quietest but its been yrs since ive used one. may be improved these days. in tanks are nice if you got a few bux
Good friend has had a Carter on his 67 Camaro, it STILL works. Been on there since the late 70s. Not driven much anymore but still...

Intanks get crazy expensive but... The Carters are a good choice if they flow enough and have enough pressure for the application.

Default Fuel Pump Noise

Hi, my fuel pumps ARE quiet.

NOW the most common problem : A pump inlet restriction !

A repair method of easy labor, remove the fuel pick-up, inspect the inlet screen/replace the inlet screen if necessory.
