That seems rather high flow for stock. Takes 2 running in tandem to act like an Airdogg 150. PSI is 50-65 depending on the press regulator condition.

Could not tell you, but one superduty pump is more then enough to supply 238/100 hybrids...

As far as an airdog, a superduty pump will outlast them for sure.

Could not give me an airdog, well I might use it as a step...

Per Fass, your numbers are accurate... that being said I don't know how accurate there numbers are. That does seem pretty high but I have no idea.

Fass - Fuel Air Separation System

The Airtex cross reference for the 7.3 flows 35-45 gph...which seems much more reasonable.

i got one off a truck at the scrapyard and im going to use it on my dodge to try and get rid of the mechanical pump, i guess i will find out if it can keep up with my p7100, i was just tying to see how it stack up flow wise with my current pump before i did it
