The DW300 is about $170 shipped...the walbro 325 price is to be determined...and now this pump from aeromotive which is hopefully cheaper then the DW300

Something is wierd about the walbro 385lph they sell.
Notice there is no part number listed on their website...?

I have no information that a walbro 325 or 385 lph pump exists.
If they do actually release one, we will be carrying it also.

Just to clear things up there is no such thing as a walbro 385lph. That link there is a walbro 255lph. Someone has already bought one and flow tested it and it flowed the same as a walbro 255lph. Just wanted to let people know so they don't waste their money.

I got one of the 385lph Walbros a couple weeks ago. The part number shows it is a pump for the GM Typhoon and Cyclone, and it is a 255lph pump. The only difference I saw (and we flow tested it) was it had a large inlet.

Two pumps coming out at relatively the same time, and flow relatively the same. This is going to get interesting.

We will likely have a pre-order setup on our website as soon as we get more specific dates.

Pricing should be under $200 shipped. I.E. the same or lower price then pumps that flow less! :-)
Are they compatible with e85...

The pump should be fine, at least until the rust particles from your tank clog it up... The FullBlown hanger on the other hand, I am not sure... I have heard of possible issues with the non anodized hangers with oxygenated fuels, and ethanol/methanol fuels... I don't think there has been any real testing done yet though...

this is awesome for all the in-tank guys who don't want to sump. I want to run a full blown setup with two of these and see how they do. now the price war will be interesting.

What about the other pumps i have seen on ht some were. The ones that are high press 255s. I think the high press. thing well help at 40+ psi and 60 psi base fuel press.

Look at the chart posted on the top of the thread....
The HP = high pressure. The HP pump does not compare to the Aeromotive 340

hmm.. now which pump to buy to replace my walbro 255HP.. This or the DW301.. both of which look promising. Either pump and a boost-a-pump looks like it will be gold.

I see that but it stops at like 90psi if you have a base press. of 60psi and you 1.1 at 50psi of boost that is over a 100. So i am looking at a in tank that will do good over a 100.

It doesn't work like that... The pump can only flow X volume at X psi.
The 255 HP is generally the pump which everyone sells & has been selling for years....
I don't get what you are trying to "figure out"..

The real question you should be asking your self is "Should I buy a pump from a company that has been around forever & already has an established fuel pump/fuel regulator product line that has been around for years or do I buy a fuel pump from a company that has never released or produced a fuel pump ever before?" I would prefer to risk my engine on the Aeromotive product.

Im looking for something to support 90-120psi fuel pressure(Fuel Lab FPR), FIC 900s, and E85. Single pump with this years goal of 300-350whp stock GSR longblock. Next year same setup but built bottom end 450-500whp. Also looking at using either of these pumps at a slightly higher voltage. My car is a street car and my daily.
