Yeah I saw that Sybil but I'd give him a pass. He bought the Copo Camaro... every last one of 'em

I like Richard... but seeing him be a goofball for Dodge kinda trivializes the brand; makes it all seem like some kind of joke... like the overpriced cheesed-up hunks of junk he sells.

Haha... I love that. A stripper took my money this week but next week I'll contribute

LMAO

I knew you posted somewhere about this pump Jeremy. This guy said he got the Walbro 400 instead of the 450; still likes it though. http://www.lxforums.com/board/f71/api-competition-single-fuel-pump-review-344068/

Exactly Speedy, no worries about upgrading the power feed to 6 gauge. I know some people have melted their wiring with the dual hat... be careful guys. 6.1 OEM will support 6psi. The 6.4 OEM flows about 25% more... so I'm *guessing* it'll support 8 psi. The API's will support a lot more, maybe 12 psi. Thing is, the 6.4 pump price has risen so much (~$300) that it makes sense to just get the API.

You guys and the guys at LXF have steered me into the best possible solution currently available, appreciated. I came close to getting that API saddle hat; last year this woulda been the best thing goin for a simple low-boost upgrade. However, the Walbro 450 recommendation and the comments about "lots of good options out there" kept me looking. I pulled the trigger on API's Competition Single Pump last night... supposedly it comes with the 450 but at least one other person got the Walbro 400 with it. So idk, we'll see what ships. If API's flow charts are to be believed, this setup will signficantly out flow the dual hat 255 setup at 58 psi, by about twice as much. Alcharger has a nice writeup about installing a 450 into the basket, but I like the API kit at $449... just a couple of C-notes above the cost of the pump. I can agree with that; fuel pump is one component I do not want to stress.

So for all we know BAPs are 100% reliable if wired correctly?

That's true Speedy; I was hoping to hear something like that. I'll get it shined and sailed then. I'm sure you would! Im tryin not to bug him too much until I get my stuff back from KB and scheduled for shop time.

Thanks for the confirmation Speedy... I'm definitely seeing a pattern here. I just got off the phone with KB and they now say my BAP is good. When they tested the used one I have they blew a fuse but David said it must been the pump they were using; the BAP vendor ran it with no issues. I don't wanna use it... but I'd feel kinda shady selling something that I wouldn't personally recommend. What do I do with it? How do I get this into my basket without all the "modified basket" issues? Better yet, what's your cell number??

Do you have this one? http://www.shophemi.com/p-2176-lxlc-hemi-dual-pump-fuel-hat-by-arrington-performance.aspx

Thanks Erik and Mopar. I've seen Rob's fuelish thread and HemiC's writeup. Good stuff for future reference but more work than I need for my itty bitty 8psi. I'm pretty concerned about the fuel starvation and left-right fuel balancing issues that people see when modifying the basket. I'm thinking of getting the Arrington saddle pump or an upgraded 6.4L pump and run the KB BAP... I *think* those options will avoid the issues.

Why so bitter GSO?

Thanks. That's a shame. I'm looking for ideas now that KB said my BAP is bad.

Ooooooooookay.
