1) Which inline fuel pumps do you guys use for a 350 TBI conversions? Prefer an OEM pump, going in a streetrod.
2) Is it possible to flash the 747 for an electric fan signal, may just use a temp sending unit.
thanks

I'm using an e2000. I think its OEM for a lot of early 90's Ford applications. It supplies more than enough pressure for a TBI. The regulator will send whatever pressure is not used back to the tank.Quote:

Thanks
That Ford pump is pretty popular. I'm using one on a LT1 engine.
I had a Ranger at one time with the external pump. There was a canister that looked like a fuel filter on the frame above the tank but there was no filter in it. I unscrewed the cup off it to check what was inside. The little in-tank pump fed this canister. The fuel tank had no baffles and it seems to me that canister was being used as a surge tank.
Don't know if this picture will work, but this is my 33 Chevy with a E2000 and standard GM filter.

i buy all my pumps from one place TREperformance and get them sent all the way down here to newzealand.you probably dont need one this big but they do all sizes and drop in OEM replacements. http://treperformance.com/i-788467-u...fuel-pump.html
I owe you one and I'm set up to bench flash the LT1, but not sure how my health will be in next month or so, but we will try...Quote:

Originally those frame mounted canisters had filters in them, somewhere along the way they quit putting filters in them. On the full size trucks they also served as dual tank connection going from four lines to two lines.Quote:

If you can't find it, email me and I will look it up for you. Also, airtex use to make quite a few pumps for delco, and if you can find specs for the airtex pump you can go that root also.
If you don't have any success with the above info, call Airtex and ask for the technical dept. They have always been very helpful and will give you specs and part numbers. With a TBI 15 psi running works very well with 350's. if you have a pump that produces 30 psi max I would dare to venture that would suffice.
Good luck, and Merry Christmas.
Mike

The fuel pressure regulator sets the fuel pressure, not the pump. I've installed several TPI fuel pumps for TBI service, mostly 454 applications. The Carter P7408 works great for TBI!Quote:

The Carter P5001 meets your requirements: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/crt-p5001Quote:
