Are you guys talking about the aromotive 1000 pump?

Those things are crap in my book.

I have one and I need to decide if I should actually use it. Some insight as to why you think they are crap would be helpful??

Well they are a pump that requires a driver because if you hook full power all the time it's run it will over use it thus wearing it out very very quickly. How quickly you ask hows about less than 5K. They are good pumps when they run but are very tempermental to having the fuel filters changed and the power supply regulated.

nope, he used the big magnaflow 500.
if you look at the flow chart for the a1000 on aeromotives site, you see that there is absolutely NO way that it can flow enough fuel at 35psi to make 1300 fwhp.

Yeah, I figured some how he was getting by. My orignal pump shoulda been good for 632, and most of these 4 bolt main blocks are rated for 1200 hp, and he surpasses that.
Don't feel bad Fostang, I had the first on lock up in 5-7 minutes. But stuff like that is bound to happen in mass production. I really hadn't read anything bad.

On a side note I'm actually replicating Brent's fuel delivery for my car.
