373 stroker fuel pump recommendations

[mmiruzzi]

I need a new mechanical fuel pump.
360 LA motor.
Maybe 400 hp.

High PSI necessary(6 to 8 ), or will a stock PSI pump work fine.

What brands do you recommend???

Thanks much
Michael

Probably over the borderline of a stock pump. A basic HP pump will do.

The Carter 2 piece HP pump will be fine. I have it on my 416 with around 450+ HP and I run it down some long straightaways at the track that can starve out with a stock pump. I run 3/8 fuel line and 3/8 pickup/sender unit.

Thanks, but I'm confused.

You say "basic" and "high performance" in the same sentence.

How many PSI are you running in your fuel pump?

does that pump require a regulator autox??

I don't run a regulator. I have a Silver Claw 750 carb though. Other carbs' needle and seat might not be able to handle it.

IMHO toss the mech pump. get a Carter electrical pump. by the gas tank, with filter next to it. and rig a oil shut off , with a start up over ride, so you have fuel in the carb before you crank it. why in the back? if the pump or filter leek the fire danger is not at the engine. course you do carry a extinguisher in your car? UH?
