Aeromotive fuel system

Procharged 347 · May 23rd, 2009, 09:39 AM

since the 14,000 mile car i'm building doesn't have a fuel tank or fuel lines i was thinking of ordering this Aeromotive complete fuel system kit. has anyone used this or have any input or advise?

I've been looking into this for a long time... I've heard good things about Aeromotive, not this kit specifically. MM&FF just did a write up on this system, and it looks amazing and easy as hell to install. I'd love to get my hands on this kit, good choice IMO.

just ordered it, $1600 roughly but that's complete from fuel tank to fuel rails. it will be here tuesday so i'll take pics and maybe do a write up on the install

Very nice man, look forward to seeing pics of the install

Make sure you never let the fuel level get below 1/4 tank. There are no baffles in that tank and fuel slosh will cause pump starvation which causes bucking, stalling, etc.

don't run the pump dry or she won't last long

no but i did

With the new system, not sure of a part # but, the pump is fully submerged in the tank... So I would assume that there would be little to no issues going down to 1/4tank?
Also it's probably not a good idea to run any pump dry...

that's a lot of $

I was referring to the external pump kits they sell. I wasn't even aware that they sell a system with an intake pump. I need to get out more...

Hopefully that tank has baffles or I can see the same problem happening. It just has an A1000 pump stuck in the bottom of the sump.
