Help me out here, guys.
I'm looking into an aftermarket fuel pump for the '86. I'm struggling with a few different things:
1. Why the hell is there such a variance in the cost of 255 lph fuel pumps? Summit has a Walbro for $120, a BBK for $135, a Holley for $170, and an Accel for $220. What's the story here? Is there really that much difference in pumps? I thought the Walbro was supposed to be the bees-knees, why is it the cheapest?
2. What is the story with the Aeromotive 340lph "Stealth" pump? This thing is supposedly a bolt in deal that replaces the factory pump...? Anybody with some experience here? I was unaware that there were replacement pumps any bigger than 255lph...
