Default Install question for Ellis......

Hey Ellis, I have been thinking about getting a new fuel pump (racetronix) and was wondering how hard they are to install. I finally found some instructions and was wondering if you could PM me an install price?

Also, how hard would it be for me to do it alone?

Not hard, but what are you changing it for? Your not spraying that much.

Depends on the model yr, in 03+ Vettes that is the case, but in the prior years the pump is on the outside.

Can you PM me an e-mail address? The government computer won't let me attach pictures and won't even let me view other's pictures or mpegs, etc.

I'll scan the ones I got and e-mail them to you! Thanks

I'd rather be safe than sorry, and if I decide to shoot more than 150hp shot, I will be able to. Not to mention that I'm buying a single stage system with the possiblity of upgrading to multiple stages!

Nitrous isn't a bad thing if you take precautions. It when people just throw a bottle on and don't add a safety switch or window switch who have problems!

I've done the research and the fuel pump would best be replaced! They aren't that expensive to begin with.
