Does the aeromotive 340 fuel pump flow more then a modded walbro 255 fuel pump? I know ill never max out either in a double pumper but I ask because I think one of my walbros might be going and I want to replace them both with either the same pump or something better.
Pick me pick me

It's a turbine style pump, liker aero/dw, etc so if anything, it will be quieter.

If you decide you don't want to put the effort into make the pump work let me know. I will take it off your hands.

Yes, this pump flows more than a modded Walbro.

Meh; I have a re-wired dw301 with adjustable fpr and cost me almost as much as a buschur double pumper. Seems like you can try all you want, to replicate the dp's success, but my advice is to bite the bullet and do it right the first time. Or else end up spending equal money for a sub-par setup.

haha, OK sorry Dan. The pump you are questioning is failing left and right on E85, I don't know why you'd even consider it. Our DP kit with two modded pumps in it is more fuel than most will ever need.

Thanks REV.olution.

2 x 255 lph = 510 lph > 400 lph

$510lph < $400lph

every time a new fuel pump comes out and a thread is started or when a discussion on fuel pumps start, several people end up banned for short period of time. I can tell you this, the two variables that stay the same from thread to thread are the discussions about the topic, and the presence of a certain vendor.

David,

Don't have the pump or the housing in my hands, like you do, so I'd appreciate your opinion on the following...

How much "longer" is the pump than the "standard" Walbro? If one were to CNC a spacer that would fit between the pump housing and the tank with a couple gaskets above and below, would that give enough space to lower the pump to clear the OEM pump housing limitations and still fit in the tank?
