Airdog=father FASS=son, whichever you'd rather support i guess, basically the same design, Airdog is cheaper to run i believe filters are a bit cheaper and what not but it's all a matter of preferance

Simple install. The pulley bolts to the balancer and the pump just goes on the bottom of the oil pan, hook up the fuel regulator to send excess fuel back to the tank and put the belt on and it's movin fuel.

i know air dogg was originally designed for air removal only. then they did some tweaking and got it as an air removal/fuel pump and fass shorty followed

It uses some longer bolts that you put in after you pull a couple of em out of the pan. Just pull the old ones out and replace them with the longer ones provided.

Honestly the install for theses mechanical pumps couldn't be any easier. No having to figure out where and how to mount it, NO WIRING, I hate wiring. It's a simple bolt it on and drive away. Oh and to purge air from the lines, that can be a pain but you have to do this anytime you break open a fuel line.

No electric motor to burn out, no fuses to blow, no brushes to change or nothin. Worse thing that can happen is that you break a belt and if you carry a spare belt it takes 5 minutes roadside with no tools to change. I'm over 100,000 on my pump and the belt isn't even showing any signs of wear.

$499 for a Pump of this quality and lifetime warranty can't be beat.

Thanks again for your Business and Support
