Paxton experiences? what's best bang/buck pump??

[Shirley, Mark R]

Some general observations:  1.  Out of tank pumps will never be as reliable
as in tank.
You just don't have the fuel cooling the motor and pump assy.  2.  In tank
pumps are always
cheaper to purchase.  3.  Out of tank pumps are noisy, due to not having
fuel to muffle it.
4.  The nice bosch external units are available in a noise/vibration
reducing mount
at your nearest Ford dealer for a fuel injected 87 Ford Van, for around $200
last I checked.

Ross-

Bosch makes a really good pump that comes in 3 different configurations
that could be used out-o-tank.  The model numbers and one retailers prices
are:

     10208 - 0.475" barb inlet with 12mm outlet - $215.05
     10209 - in-tank screened inlet with 12mm outlet - $193.90
     10210 - 14mm inlet with 12mm outlet - $228.95

The Rx7 crowd has been buying these to replace the stock pump which is
iffy for 350-400 hp (on a rotary - the BSFC of a piston engine is higher).

Let me know if you want the phone number for the distributor.
