I was advised that if the filter before the pump plugged up, the pump
would starve and burn up. I put one in anyway :-) Oh, and I put a shut-off
between the tanks and pump. Very handy to be able to shut off the fuel supply
for any reason.

That is curious about there being a warning not to use a filter between
the fuel tanks and the red Holley fuel pump. The instructions for my new
black Holley 125 pump spec an 80-100 micron pre-filter for between the tanks
and the pump and another, 70 micron or better filter at the carbs.

Subject: Re: [Tigers] fuel pump
I have a Red Holley pump @ 4 - 6# ($109 at Summit) that I use as a
stand-by pump for when my old Bendix bites the dust. It runs continuously,
and is loud mounted in the boot. The only problem I had was when I put a
filter 'tween the tanks and the pump. They said that was a no-no. They
were
right. I don't know how loud it would be under the baggage tray.
The number PLDFlyer gave was for a 20 pound pressure pump according to
Summit Racing:
Fuel Pump, Electric, 23 gph Free Flow Rate, 20 psi Maximum Pressure,
Buick,
Chevy, Ford, Subaru, Toyota, Each
