Electric or Mechanical fuel pump

Nothing wrong with running a mechanical pump. It'll reliably deliver more fuel than you'll need on a street driven car.

This can be true depending on the pump and engine combo.

Here is why I like electric pumps. Consistant fuel supply and pressure all the time.

I think if mechnical pumps were the bee's knees that the big three would run them, which they don't.

To the OP, I run an Aeromotive A1000 pump with 5/8" line. I use a return line as recomended so the fuel isn't dead-headed.
