I've narrowed down my choices to either the FASS HPFP or the Walbro kit from Glacier, looks like they are within $10 of each other. My questions are which seems to be the better kit? Do they both come with everything needed to install, and which kit is easiest to install??

 

I am looking at the same two.

It is my understanding that the Walbro comes as a kit with new lines, regulator, etc. where the HPFP is just the pump. Is this correct?

 

I don't know about the FASS but I have the Walbro Glacier 392. The 392 had everything needed to to the install. Excellent kit. Instructions are very good also.
I guess it took me about an hour to hour and half to to the install. Can't remember for sure. It's been a couple years since I done mine but i am very pleased with the 392 and the install was pretty easy.

 

Here is a link for the FASS I was looking at, say's it comes with everything, plus free shipping?

I just installed one from Eric on my buddy's '99. Had everything needed for install. The pictures were a bit hard to see but you can get them in a much larger format on the FASS site.

 

I don't know where you are in SW OH...but we put a Glacier kit with our own filter setup on my buddy's 02 if you are local and would like to see it installed! With a Smarty and Jammer 5's, it won't pull below 15psi anytime. Idle, is around 16-17psi!

I'm super impressed with the service, and quality of the kit Richard @ GDP puts together!

Another vote for Walbro, but i would give the guys at wide open diesel a call and see what they can do for you. i just bought another turbo from them, great guys let them know Bobby Beard told ya to call

 

I am in Hillsboro...



I was looking at the walbro kit at Wide Open, but it say's the kit has been discontinued???

 

hhmm i'd call jason and see whats up with that, i talked to him about buyin one awhile back and he said all was good to go...

 

FASS HPFP here, and couldn't be more satisfied. Idle a 18 psi, cruise at 17 and never below 16. If this one ever goes bad, another new one will take it's place. Also, the install is pretty straight forward.

 

I'll put in another vote for the Walbro 392 from GDP. Great service, instructions, no problems at all. I'm loving the ~19 idle and 13-14 WOT.

Filter changes are a piece of cake now, no more bumping the starter several times to fill the bowl. One bump and it's at 19psi in under 4 seconds and it fires right up.

 

Hmmmm, interesting. I've done 5 or more filter changes on my HPFP and never had to bump the starter more than twice. Were you using the HPFP or the full FASS with dual filters?

 

We're up around Washington CH if you want to look at one

There's always the Mechanical MITUSA pump as well, it will be itresting to see some of these electric pumps in a few years..

 

FASS here! Three years and very happy with it. Higher quality parts IMO. Everything included in their kit.
19 psi at idle and can't pull it down below 17 psi at WOT.
