I'm going to be using a set of TFS TW heads and track heat intake and just maybe a custom cam but not sure on the cam yet.

What fuel pump should I get? SEems like the 255lph from walbro is very popular? What about granetelli motorsports?

Thanks for the info. [worship] [patriot]

They're all walbro's shipped in different boxes. Personally, I wouldn't buy anything from granetelli because he's a clueless asshole, but that's just my opinion [Smile]

Get the walbro 255. St5150, it seems that all the pumps are walbro. I bought 2 pumps that were supposivly new on the market from Holley and they were wlabro. Bought a BBK pump once and it was a walbro. But they work great!!

Alright guys, thanks for the help.

Any suggestions on where to order one? I think they are just around 100$ right? [Cool]

The only one I can find from them is the granatelli motorsports pump [Confused] Maybe I'm looking at the wrong spot

It doesn't matter what brand 255 you find.... the box will say BBK, granatelli, holley ect... but inside will always be a WALBRO pump. I read in another post that you're considering going with a blower later on.... if so, spend the extra $10 or so and get the HIGH PRESSURE version of the 255 pump. I've also heard that if you call summit and ask for the "house brand" 255, you can save a few bucks by not getting the fancy packaging. You may also want to compare prices with www.jdsperformance.com

Alright, its all clear now. TO be honest, jdsperformance was very hard to get ahold of lately so I ended up getting my parts through summit (heads/intake) but with the 10% off code someone had on here it was still a better price then jdsperformance since they recently raised their price (as did everyone else I've noticed) on TFS heads.
