August 25, 20186 yr comment_556157 I used the K&N pump from MSA. It's been working just fine for the last year. It's not as quiet as MSA makes it sound, but once the car is started I can't hear it. Here's the link to the pump; http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/classic17a09/11-3078 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/41714-what-electric-fuel-pump-upgrade/?&page=3#findComment-556157 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 27, 20186 yr comment_556278 Thanks. I have K&N air filters, but didn't realize they also made electrical fuel pumps. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/41714-what-electric-fuel-pump-upgrade/?&page=3#findComment-556278 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 23, 20195 yr comment_576058 The Airtex 8012S is rated 5-9psi at 30gph.... shouldn't we use Airtex 8016S which is rated 2.5psi - 4.5psi at 30gph ? Just curious ? I am looking to add one to supplement my Mechanical pump as backup... Many thanks.....

May 23, 20195 yr comment_576061 I'd use the 2.5 psi - 4.5 psi pump for Weber DGVs. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/41714-what-electric-fuel-pump-upgrade/?&page=3#findComment-576061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 23, 20195 yr comment_576065 I've been using the Holley Premium Red Electric fuel pump. It's a great pump, but, a bit too loud for my taste. I want something a little less noisy. I'm running triple Mikuni's, so I'll need something compatible. Not sure if this one will be any less noisy but I'm strongly considering the Nissan Nismo pump (if I can even find one). Zcardepot.com has them listed, but, out of stock. The K&N from MSA you listed above looks interesting.. Airtex is also a possibility... I do like the simple design of the Airtex. It doesn't stand out as aftermarket.

May 23, 20195 yr comment_576075 Thanks MMaras for input.... I'll go with the 2.5psi-4.5psi Airtex 8016S ... it still has the 30gph flow rate ... so it makes sense!
