Default ?'s about fuel pumps and systems...

I am building an all motor car to possibly run mid 10's on gas. I will also look at switching over to methanol later on down the line. I have seen Barry Grant makes a fuel pump that has seals that accomodates both gas and methanol and it also has a built in fuel filter. It's about $450 I think. Any one have any info on the Aeromotive stuff and what its capabilities are with methanol and seal issues?

I really like the compact all in one idea, but I'm from Kansas City where Aeromotive is and would like to help the local economy.

Any recommendations on the fuel lines? -6 or -8 inlet and return info?

We used a Bosch pump for gas and meth. you need -10 from tank to pump, -8 from pump to rail, and -6 for return and these are all minimums for meth, btw good luck on 10.Xs on gas!!

We run the Magnaflow Pro Star EFI600 on Duc's car which is just running gas... It'll operate from 20-120psi and will support over 2000hp... I'm not sure if it'll handle Meth tho... It's the only pump I'll ever run on an high boost FI street car... The only thing is people give you funny looks when sitting at a stop light... I guess they can't quite figure out what that whine is...

Here it is on Duc's EJ6 and below is a little video if you wanna hear it whine...


The EFI600!!!
