Re: Fuel Pump Upgrade

Most of the old school fuel math you see on the internet and in books doesn't even work right for pump gas/race gas let alone E85. If you go by some of that stuff, you would need 1000000000000000000000cc injectors and -16 fuel lines(I am exaggerating, but...)
Also the math to figure additional fuel needs for injector and fuel pumps are different. Fuel pumps are not hit nearly as hard by running E85 as injectors are.

I've heard that before also. Acually I think I heard it from you in a thread over on the Supraforums. Does anyone know why exactly that is?
