Fuel Pumps for my 92 ZR-1
 
I need to get a couple of fuel pumps for my car. What does the collective here think about what kind of pumps I can put in?

I installed ACdelco EP381 pumps last summer. The only pump I could find that wasn't made in China

Roy,
The pumps on Ebay are not a bad deal. Plus they are from a member which I think is a plus.
When you have the sending unit out, be sure and get one of the billet "Y"s that Carter makes. I have had the original plastic one develop a crack. Use stainless worm clamps and submersible fuel line also.
:cheers:

Roy,
Here's pics of the hose (you will need 5/16 & 3/8) Carter's "Y" and my unit when complete. :cheers:

I just checked with Summit and the Walbro pump that Marc suggests is out of stock at this time. It also states that the fuel pressure is only 43 psi, not the 85 psi Marc's article states. Is 43 psi sufficient?

Very good information. Where did you get them? I'm trying to avoid Chinese crap wherever I can. Didn't even have their flu, yet [emoji3]

I got the pumps, screens and gasket from Rock Auto. I found 5mm viton o-rings for the sending unit bolts at Grainger, part no. 1RHN7.

The Rock Auto parts list is:

Acdelco EP381 fuel pump
Acdelco TS1 fuel pump screen
Acdelco TS2 fuel pump screen
Spectra LO148 Sending Unit Gasket

I looked and they were already sold. The fuel pressure is supposed to around 43 to 45 psi.
