fuel pumps

Postby odee » Tue Jan 20, 2015 8:23 pm

guys have gotten a good used raptor rp 100 fuel pump for my gmc/6bt conversion. What would be the best way to use this pump in a dual tank setup? How is the best way to make fuel pick ups in the tanks?

Since my 80 has dual tanks I put some thought into plumbing them. I'll be putting a sump in each, and running 1/2" line into the raptor 100 I've got then into a dual filter setup before it gets to the ip. Now either I'll just run a Y block and let it feed from both tanks at once or use some kind of diverter (likely mechanical so I can use the existing push-pull knob) I'll have to look and see if anyone makes the diverter I'm after

the tanks have a 3/8's pick up that the float is mounted on. Have been thinking about a sump but truck is 2wd don't want to drag it off. How well do the draw straws work with this style pump? Will the 100 have to much pressure for the ve pump?

The raptor should have a pressure adjustment so your can set it to your desired pressure
