Fuel lab fuel pump ?
Anyone did any research on these or used them? I've been looking around for a good pump for my new setup and came across these.

I was looking at using their 42401 pump. It looks like it can do the high pressures/flow that is required from the ID 1000cc's. We'll see if it works. I was just looking for an alternative to the dual bosch's and it was all I could come up with besides the weldon which is 2 times as expensive.
that's the same boat I'm in. I have been looking at the weldon but the price turns me away but I know it's a good product. The fuelab pump looks to be very well engineered as well but just want to make sure before I go putting that pump to use on a lot of money in the motor.
BTW love the puple pump

on our race car and have been extremely happy with them.
dont remember the part number. but we make 410whp and spin out motor to 10500rpm
I have clients that use these pumps on 1500hp diesel street trucks.
their pumps work with ALL fuels and their rate can be controlled

..i run two 18203 sx engineering pumps in my car and they operate quiet and work well. I dont think Fuel Lab has anything to do with SX, but i could be wrong.

Boostfeen, I ran a similar fuel setup as you before I switched to the single fuel lab pump.
I ran two sx 18203's flowing parallel. Worked good at the time, but not a good choice for a street car. The problem with 18203's was that the cavitiate very easily. If my fuel cell got below a qaurter tank and it cavitated, It didn't take long for the pump to go bad. I sent the 18203's off to be repaired 3 times. I've seen bosh 044 cavitate consitantly and never go bad.
I switched to the fuel lab pump because it actualy flows more fuel than the two 18203's combined. especialy when runnig high boost/fuel pressures. So pushing my car to 40psi boost giving me about 83psi at the fuel rail, My fuel flow on the twin 18203's was dramaticaly reduced. The fuel lab pumps keep up better than most pumps on the market when runing high fuel pressure.
I'm runnig the fuel lab 41402-C. Also get the added safety of running a single pump.
The fuel lab pumps also have the added feature for controlling pump speed. It can be wired in several configurations to limit pump speed when cruising and then ramping it up under wot. This is realy important for running a big pump like this on a street car.
So for those interested in these pumps, I would recomend them.

I have a fuelab pump that will be going in my car this year. I'll be using the 42401 pump as it seems to do better than the 42402 at high boost.

yes, we do, as well as all the accessories you need to install them. We carry a nice billet dual pump mount from MB Racing too. I'll try to get some pics up soon.

..may i ask the reason you would use the dual bosch 044's over something like Weldon, or fuelab 42401 pump?
