Default Help me run wiring to walbro 450 pump.

2002 extended cab Silverado in tank 450 walbro pump. I'm wanting to run thicker gauge wiring to the pump so its getting the correct amount of voltage. What gauge would be best? Do I just run wiring to the relay and stop there with the bigger wire? Will stock relay work or is it going to limited? I'm trying to size everything together correctly.

the racetronix wiring harness are 10ga. personally I would just see if they have a harness for your application and buy it if they do. Between supplies and your time it would be well worth the 70-100 dollars it would cost IMO

FYI

There is a difference in wire no matter what gauge. You want wire with a high strand count if you decide to make your own rather than a plug and play kit. That's if vendors actually make a kit for for your application.

Racetronix wire harness for a 98-02 Camaro powers a Walbro 450 without issue and you may be able to tailor it to work with what your doing. Do some research and see if someone makes a harness specific to your application. Most likely you can find a company out there who makes drop in units with a wire harness. Lonnie with Lonnies Performance or Andy over at Squash Performance one of these may have what it is your needing.

Good luck!
