Default Which Racetronix fuel pump kit?
On ws6store.com, there are 2 Racetronix pumps listed. The part numbers are: RFPK-001 and FPA-002A. What is the difference besides the price? Are both direct fits for 99-02 f bodies?

Just took a brief look, but it looks like one contains just the pump only and the other is pump and hot wire kit. Basically the hot wire kit will spin the pump a little harder, thus allowing you more room for power

Will the kit w/out the hotwire kit still be a direct drop in with no modifications or splicing?

Yes. I actually run the one with the hot wire kit, and it was pretty simple

if you run it without the hotwire kit, it puts a strain on the pump because it pulls more power then the stock pump. could damage the pump. the hotwire kit comes with a relay and gets it power from the alternator and wont damage the pump due to low voltage

When installing the hotwire kit, is it all plug and play too?

Yes the hot wire kit is basically a plug and play. Very easy to do

RFPK-001 = FPA-001B + FPWK017W - 99-02 F-BODY

FPA-002A - Fuel Pump Assembly (no harness) 98 F-BODY ONLY!

Given the age of these cars and the power requirements of the HP pumps the harness SHOULD be installed.
