Aviator Fuel Pump

zak2006 · December 24th, 2010, 06:12 PM

I am 99% positive I am picking up a DD next week, which means the mustang is ready for some attention.

I have a great opportunity to get a aviator fuel pump, very cheap compared to new, from a friends that was just involved in a head on collision. Car only had 29,xxx miles.

What modifications are needed to get one of these working in our cars? Any reason not use one of these? Any advise from actual users would be appreciated.

Im running a Ford GT supercar pump, but have a friend with an aviator. He said the install is just like the supercar pump. he has a bap as well and is 480+ rwhp.

They are a direct replacement on our cars just like the SVT Focus pump, no modifications required like some other pumps. Mine made 420rwhp before starting to go lean. Very good pump from my experience

well the numbers you both gave were in the 400's which is more than the most hp she is gonna see with stock bottom end.

Im having no problems with a ford gt pump. It wasn't a straight swap but the modifications needed were minor and it was still pretty easy. If the aviator pump goes in like the gt pump you will spend more time wrestling with the gas tank than swapping pumps. That said... if you are only going to have a bolt on gt there isn't any need to bother with the pump and you should just let it go.

Not planning on keeping her just bolt for much longer
