[QUOTE="quick88lx, post: 14319364, member: 37153"] appreciate your input, the method to my madness is i got everything a few years ago from a friend for less than what one would pay for a fuel hat......that said at the time fore had stopped making their fuel hats when they closed down. additionally they were going for a premium used. I was building the system in advance for the plans i had down the road, which are coming to fruition here in the next couple months when i bolt on the 2.6 kb im getting from a friend upon my sept. move to D.C. AS well installing/degreeing the cams i have. At that point with my built drivetrain ill be bringing the kb to its efficiency limits as far as boost goes on e85 (potentially running out of pump with even the A1000 factoring the 30% more fuel e85 calls for would put the cap on the pump at 700hp to the best of my understanding) as far as putting a fuel cooler on already picking up a killer chiller for the blower and have considered utilizing the 7gal resivoir mounted in my trunk that will be icy cold and mounting a fuel cooler inside it and just running the return through it then back out strait down to the tank, as opposed to a fuel "cooler" that is just taking in air off the pavement that is near 150* here in albuquerque and almost as hot in louisiana correct me if im wrong but dont feel like it would help very much as well as blocking airflow across the other cooling "surfaces" i.e. radiator in the grill area. again if im out in left field with any of this thinking PLEASE correct me lol now if this could just be signs of an older pump saying its about to give up the ghost and all i need is to swap it im all about it, im not about taking $3-500 shots in the dark. trying to work through this with others input/opinions/first hand experience as logically as possible. when setting up the pump controller i followed Aeromotives directions to the T. the thing that drives me nuts most of all is i did my buddys fuel system right after mine the same way with minor differences and he has never had an issue.....EVER:cryying: oly differences being he picked up a used glens tank that has a -12 feed to the pump then goes into -10 to factory rails into a magnafuel reg and back to the tank -8......... no controller its on full kill all the time drives hours to dallas frequently in the heat ..... no issues:??: overall i love the fuel system aside from the heating issue never had a problem, maby when i get to D.C. it will be cool enough to where it wont be an issue but id rather fix the short coming stated than pretend its not an issue.
