Great pump. The one we put in came with no instructions so we got to do it twice.

BTW ONLY the wiring harness is plug and play. Racetronix was kind of snotty to us about the instructions bit. Excuses were the best but did trouble shoot the problem. I guess when you work with your own product all the time it is hard to believe other's can't read you mind

Over all good product. Not the best on the service end

I installed a ractronix twin intank on my TA and a ractronix single on my brother in laws SS.

Both were plug and play, easy to install and still working great after two seasons

Have you considered an in-tank DP system?

My racetronix install was A+, the only thing they leave out of the instructions is that you have to snip a fin out of the inside of the bucket to fit the pump in flush. Great product.

Excerpt from on-line instructions:
"* NOTE: Some buckets have ribs on the side which prevent the pump from sitting straight up in the bucket. You will have to shave these down if your bucket has them.
"

Happy you like the system.

You know everytime I have bought a product requiring any kind of desassembly/reassembly it has came WITH the directions. You don't have to have the thing completely apart then realize you don't have anything insite puting it back together correctly. It seems to me people can put in the extra 10 cents for a copy of the directions. Holy **** is that going to kill you? It would save a lot of people's time looking for them. I got an idea, maybe send the directions with the pump, HELL here;s a good one POST IT ON YOUR SITE. My .02 since I had to drop the tank twice. Which isnt easy due to the fact the rear end comes also. Thanks for nothing racetronix. Good pump though,

This topic is getting old and we have no intention of changing what is bundled with the FLT1 system at this time. Our reasons where touched upon way back when the product moved from a dealer installed item only to a product that was being sold over the counter.
The LT1 system does not have printed instructions in the box.
All dealers are instructed to have the customer e-mail support@racetronix.com if they are doing the install themselves. There have not been any updates to the instructions being e-mailed out for over a year so why this section would be missing in the instructions you received is unknown. This is assuming you did e-mail support@racetronix.com for instructions.

We are glad you like the system and that it is working well for you.
