Fuel Pump Choice: Mi16, Petert Inlet, 45 Dellorto's...

[Stu 18]

Hi all,

 

Im starting to gather the various bits and pieces together to switch over to the Dellorto's, but am stumped with what to use for the fuel delivery.

 

I searched, and got conflicting stories.

 

So..

 

Option A) Facet Red Top pump, Filter king regulator. Pros: Should fuel it easily, and gives good control. Cons: Noisy pump, Expensive. Very..

 

Option Facet Silver top pump, now i understand i wont need a reg with this? Pros: Cheaper? Cons: Still noisy..

 

Option C) Keep the injection pump, but a couple of regs and use this. Pros: Cheaper, quicker to install. Cons: I dont like the idea..

 

So..

 

If theres an option ive missed, please fill me in. Otherwise, id be interested to see what you guys are running.

you moan about a noisy fuel pump in a stripped out track car? ROFL!

 

all the facet's I've experienced have been quieter than a standard 205 pump...

 

The difference between red and silver is the flow and pressure, you'll still need a regulator I believe.

There not expensive, Yes they are noisy on start up but thats it, So

 

Red top, Fuel Filter & Pressure Reg is all you need

Tried a Carter 4070?

No? Got any info mate?

It's a high flow low pressure pump, designed to work without a regulator (at 4psi IIRC, flows 70gph).

 

I got one with very little use but it flooded one carbs. Already had a redtop and regulator spare.

 

Read up on them a while ago and seems most people have no issues with flooding, so might be the float in my carb.
