I'd like to thank everyone who gave me suggestions and shared their positive
and negative experiences with various pumps, regulators, etc. in response to
my question of a few weeks back. You may remember that I posted about a
final negative experience with a FACET cube pump and asked for input on a
replacement pump and regulator setup.
In the end I installed the Holley Blue pump and Holley low pressure (1-4
psi) regulator and pulled larger lines--3/8 versus 5/16--from the cell up to
the
regulator and through a Y-divider (with fuel pressure gauge mounted on it),
then 5/16 up to the HS6's. After completing plumbing and wiring today I
fired it off and adjusted the regulator to 3 psi at fast idle, then repeatedly
revved to 5K. The fuel pressure stayed constant, the EGT guages looked even
and there was no overflow from the bowls so I think I am good to go, or at
least start the next event.
Best--Michael Oritt
