luckily I caught it before I fried my VP I think. Fuel pressure is has been 14-15psi but sometimes it'll drop to 10psi and if I hammer on it going from 2000 to 2500rpms pressure tanks to less than 5psi. But I got it parked til I drop a Airdog on it to be safe.

Ugh...

Well the only other pump I can think of that not to bad is the Airtex... But your still talking at least $200 bucks for a good pump. Ummm... going down to Holley Black or Blue is a cheap option... But life span is short...

As for me I'm working 4 jobs (SRR Fire Dept, Cloud 10 Computers, Auto Repairs, and Vector Graphics) to make ends meet and there are days where I'm not working on any job!

You guys have convinced me to spend the extra $ on the airdog and solve the problem completely, don't wanna have to do it twice. I've been pretty lucky as far as work. I've been building pipe fence and serviced a few dozers since school let out til january.
