    Did you insulate the fuel pump from the frame with some rubber pads? If not, it will sound like a food processor. They do run pretty hot. Which Summit pump do you have, and what pressure are you trying to run?

    I think Summit pumps are Holley clones. Holley pumps sound like they are grinding walnuts . . . or pea gravel. My brand new Holley red pump didn't make it past the first week. It got hot and went out on thermal overload. It left me stranded twice. I threw it in the trash and got an Edelbrock. It's much quieter.

    If you can hear your fuel pump, maybe your mufflers are too quiet.
