Dont do the intank pump!!..if you are selling the truck in 6 months just get yourself a new Carter or a big line kit and Holly Blue on the frame.

Get you a Holley Black pump off Ebay and mount it near the tank.

The genos relocation kit with a holley blue will run you a little over 200 bucks but is all you need.

I am looking on ebay and there are 2 styles of Holley Blue pumps, one is $49.00 and the other style is $150.00. They both push 140 gph at 14 lbs pressure. Which should a guy order?

I just did a holley blue on the frame along with my current intank pump. Go to Autozone and you can puck up a holley blue for about $120. I also got 14' of diesel rated fuel line and ran it from the top of the tank, to the holey, to the banjo on the fuel filter inlet. Bought my pressure from 5psi to 20psi. I actually lowered the pressure a little by cutting the spring in the holley. Just make sure you remove the screen from the holley if you get one.

Here's my post on it:

Thanks

what screen did you remove? and did you also not use the pressure regulator? that is the same pump i put on my truck and am pleased with it. have had it on the truck for about 9 months now and no problems. i put the pressure regulator on with mine....was thinking about removing it though.
