Hey y'all,

Is anyone using this fuel pump?

It's supposed to flow 110 gpm. I still have a fuel delevery issue at high rpms and I guess its time to upgrade from the stock pump. The carb is a Qjet with a 149 needle and seat. If anyone has any other recommendations please post them. I kinda want to keep as close to a stock appearance as I can and don't want to use a regulator. TIA

I dont think an Edelbrock pump is much more money.. And I feel better with a name product..Thats what I did anyway.. good luck phil

I usually find that summit brand is really name brand stuff, and very good quality. Summit always stands behind their products. I say go for it. I have been super happy with everything I have bought from them.

SEE! I told you guys. So its probably a good pump, because thats a serious brand name. :thumbsup:

Got that pump too, works great. Had a edelbrock and the diaphram went out in less then one yr, was a waste of $80. Go with the summit one.

I dont know about this pump, buy the summit electric pump is not a holley pump, it is cheap crap. We have had two go bad on two different cars. I just bought a Holley blue to replace it with and it is more quiet, draws less amps, and has no pulsation. Stay away from the electric Summit pump. When it comes to something as important as the fuel pump I would buy a good name brand pump.
