Default what fuel pump should i get?

well looks like my steady loss in fuel pressure over the last month and low voltage is probably due to the fuel pump starting to take a crap... weird i only put out 313 hp and 340 tq on the stock fuelpump and it only has 77k miles on it... well what fuelpump should i replace it with? and how hard is the swap? in the future ill probably be putting about 500 hp so it will need to handle that

I went with the Racetronix Unit a while back. Great piece, great customer service, and pretty good price! I read so many good things about it I had to try it out. After doing it, I should've just gone with the whole setup including the new harness and all, but the pump did its job. Install can be easy or hard (trap door or drop the tank). Good luck!

Ummm.... IIRC, the pump, replacment wires from pump to sending unit, new clear flex hose, new sock for bottom, sealant for the FP bucket, even a paperclip to apply it with!! You can't beat that Go to their homepage if you want even more info, I don't know if they're a sponsor here so I don't know if I can post.

Oh and a word of advice, when you install, MAKE SURE the float arm has full movement, or you'll be going back in there... AMHIK
