Default In-Tank Fuel Pump???

Ok gang have a few more questions -

1) Im looking to install an in-tank fuel pump (225 liters/hour or close to it) who has them and where to get them for the C5 Corvette? Which one are most C5 owners using?

2) Has any one installed their own pump? how hard is it? Anyone have detail instructions or site with instructions?


Thanks Again,

Mike

How does the unit, you have in mind, interface with the PCM. The PCM controlls the electric fuel pump operation through a fuel pump relay.

The primary fuel pressure regulator, a part of the left tank fuel sender assembly, maintains the correct fuel pressure (55-62 psi) to the fuel injection system. Seems like a more powerful fuel pump would not really make any diffference as the ultimate fuel pressure is controlled by the pressure regulator. The current pump provides fuel at flow greater than the fuel injection system.
