    Well, I ended up going to Advance Auto and talking to 1 of the more knowlagble counter persons, told him I needed a fuel pump that could push 40 PSI and maintain a good flow. so he got out his book on Edlebrock and looked up a pump that would work, but at $250 forget it. so he got the holley book, looked up a pump that would work, could pump 40 PSI and at 25 PSI, would pump 35 GPH @ 13.5V ( I'll be running 13.5v but closer to 20 PSI demand, actully only 17 PSI ), which will be enough, for $166 with tax, so I bought it. rather than have to have a transfer pump for peace of mind that I would need for the VW pump. I'll get a dual relay kit and wire my MSD box ( actully low draw, just fires up an internal relay thru the 12v switched wire ) and the fuel pump into it, thru the ignition wire that's hot only with ign on.
