Re: FUEL PUMPS, Electric or Mechanical?
As soon as I relocated the fuel tank on my truck, I went with an electric in-tank pump.
I had fuel injection, so went with a Holley 12-133 pump.
Built a new engine, and switched to carb, so I had to get a regulator to knock the pressure way down from 60 psi.
Enter the Aeromotive 13220 two stage regulator.
Easy to setup, and still have a nice quiet in-tank pump.
If you go with an electric pump, put rubber mounts on it, if it’s a frame mount...and install it at the back of the truck, as it’s easier on them to PUSH fuel, than to suck the fuel. (If that makes sense)
I also have my fuel pump on a switch, so if I wanted to say, listen to the radio, I can shut the pump off. It also is wired with a “key-on” relay. So the switch can stay on all the time, as the pump will drop out, when the key is shut off.
