it boils down to how much fuel flow do you need for your build? do you want a esay install with less flow or do you want more flow with a harder install?

Do they at least include some sort of lubricant?!

True dat. So, what kind of difference are we talking about here? For the average 'run-of-the-mill' build (under 400hp), will you ever see a difference without the larger draw straw and just using the stock hardware?

And where exactly does the 100 hook up to the factory lines? must be under the bed, right?

for a 400 hp build your stock lift pump will do just fine, but if it is failing or you feel the need to replace it than the 100 will do just fine.

You can get the 150 and add a Draw Straw. Much easier and better install.

@apmcrx - the 100 kit hooks up to the quick connect tabs on the stock draw tube/sending unit, right on top of the fuel tank. Like I said earlier I should be right around 500hp comparing to other peoples builds and I have no problem running the 100.

Good to know, thanks. I'm thinking my lift pump (just changed out like 1500 miles ago) is dieing on me. Can't believe it! I have a thread HERE.

The way I see it, if you have to drop the tank for both of them, why not go ahead and install the straw? Doesn't take too long, from the looks of things.

You don't have to drop the tank to do the 100 kit

Can you get to it from underneath? like just reaching up over the tank and and in between the bed?

Yep if ur not a huge guy, im 180 lbs, you actually have room to sit between the tank and the bedside on the driver side of the truck underneath the truck. It's kinda cozy in there
