Folks,
I'm contemplating putting a fuel cell in my hooptie, and have a (hopefully) quick and simple fuel pump question.
Rather than taking a stock pump, and breaking it into a million pieces, then fabricating a mount inside the fuel cell, is there any issue with using an Aeromotive 340 fuel pump without additional tuning? The pump itself is a turbine-style unit, and is specifically listed as compatible with PWM systems, like ours using a stock FPDM.
I don't want to go to a return-style fuel system for a variety of reasons, particularly on a stock-internal 4.6L 3V. I think it would be pure overkill, and the complexity and cost of implementing would be undesirable.
The 340 would be a piece of cake to mount in a surge box inside the cell, using a sock pre-filter, then tie the cell outlet into the stock fuel line (and filter) with a -8 weld-on bung. Bang, done. I hope.
If that won't work, any suggestions of what might?
