How is your pump mounted?. Here is mine, a Holley. It sounds like a coffee grinder, doesn't have the 3 second shutoff feature of the stock pump, and is louder than the engine itself @ idle.

Howard I've got the same holley pump and have mine mounted in the front trunk. When I first installed it with the band mount like you have it was LOUD!! I made a mount that used the bolts on the bottom of the pump with some rubber cushions. Now its just loud. I can't hear it with the motor running. I've been thinking about changing the pump to some kind of rotary fuel pump, these are much queiter.
You need to use a electric fuel pump. The water pump or alternater takes up the space that the fuel pump uses in the stock location. |
