Looking at getting a new fuel system for the Cobra and was wondering what everyone is running. I need a system that will support about 1k HP on E85.
So far I'm looking at Lethal, Glenns and MMR. Each kit has it's pros and cons from what I can see on their websites but I would like some real world experience. Is there another route I'm over looking?

I've done Glenn's, Fore, and a Lethal system without a doubt the Fore was better quality.

What did you feel was better quality about it? The fit? Types of materials used?
Since you have experience in all three, what do you feel is the pros and cons of each system?

Glenn's Pros
Their quality is good, I've got their system on my stang and like the tank and rails.
Cons
I don't like mounting the pumps externally, you have to run two -6's for feed and a -6 return, for me that's too much line to get the job done that a little bigger line would do and then some. You've got to make your own fuel pump wiring (Not a big deal but for the money it should come with everything you need)
Lethal/Divison X Pros
Depending on the system you get there is one -8 or -10 feed, intank pumps with a nice hat, comes with wiring.
Cons
The wiring from the hat to the pumps was ghetto I went and replaced all the connectors, ended up buying $300 or so in extra fittings to run the system legit.
Fore pros
Quality, quality, quality. I like their machined pieces a lot better. Their regulator is badass, all the wiring came legit.
Cons
Still had to buy some fittings but not as much as the Lethal system.
Edit-And I like the fittings from the Fore and Divison X systems a lot better than Glenn's.

Fuel system installs suck, period.
I hate them.
That being said, you do have to wire your own shit up and come up with a system with the Glenns.
I agree with GREASY on all points. That being said I would try FORE based off of his input. I know I will be.

^^^^It's a 97.
Thanks for the feedback Greasy
Thanks everyone for their input. I'll give Bob Kurgan a call and see what he's offering. I'm staring to lean toward Fore now.
Is it better to have the fuel enter the regulator before or after the rails?

I always put the regulator on the return side.
