    They seem to start around $450, and may be a good choice for anybody thinking of doing a serious engine swap (I've heard reports that the GM LS Motors in particular don't like the cheapie in line pumps)

    Thanks Phillip. I'm planning on an LS swap so this might do the trick.

        High quality stuff.
        Running one of their A1000 pumps and regulator on The Black Car...
        Definitely overkill on a stock Stude, though.... EFI only...
        Here's a video....

          I bought a really nice 17 gallon tank from an Infiniti J30, with all the fittings, tubes and hoses, electrical connector, gage sender and immersed fuel pump for $50 at the local Pick and Pull salvage yard. This is a pump suitable for fuel injection. This tank sits inside the trunk on the Infiniti, and it is now inside the trunk of my 48 Champion. The photo shows the pump pressure and return lines and electrical connector. Pump and gage sender are in the same unit. If this particular unit does not adapt easily to your tank, there are many different units available to pick from.

            Tons of in tank pump setups out there that will do an LS1 just fine, simply go cruise the pick n pulls. Nowhere near the $450 price tag. Want a new one? Less than $100 will do the trick... (Do an ebay search.) JMHO

              On the swap of an L98, I spent a good deal of.time installing an intank fuel pump. On the swap of an LS1, things have naturally progressed. I investigated to find an intank pump was no longer necessary. Neither for cooling or noise. Having said that, everything that mounted the filter, pump, or regulator were resilient. You may see my installation in my album here on the website.

              sigpic 1963 Studebaker Avanti: LS1 motor and T-56 transmission have been moved rearward, set up as a two seat coupe with independent rear suspension. Complex solutions for nonexistant problems.

                Great build. I appreciate the process.

                  I used the Ford inline pump (off a late 80's/early 90's F-150) on my Turbo Pinto project. While a 4 cylinder might need less fuel volume when the boost comes on..., maybe not. I wonder how many of the issues people have with an inline relate to the placement. For fuel return I just soldered a piece of tubing to a hole drilled in sending unit. Zero problems.

                  I'm more like 48 Skyliner in doing the economical adaptation. But, if you have the money it is yours to spend as you please.
