fuel pump question

[TxCobrA98]

soo, quick question, maybe not so quick, i dont know. I really want to get my blower on but my tuner told me i need to get an in-tank fuel pump and an in-line fuel pump.

he said that the 98 cobras are a b**** to do fuel pump mods to because of the switch in fuel systems from 97 to the 99 cobras. i dont know much about this part of modding so can anyone help school me on swapping fuel pumps and what i need to do the swap?

the blower is an s-trim v2 with a 12lb pulley so should put me in the upper 400s to 500hp.

Trey IIRC the fuel pump really isnt that hard to get to..like a 45 min to 1 hour thing.

Look at the In-Tank fuel pumps as opposed to the inline ones...Aeromotive is a great brand.I think they do whole kits for our cars

right but a 96-97 cobra fuel system is different then a 98 cobra. so im mainly asking what do i need to do to do an upgrade to my 98 cobra.

Looks like the change came in the middle of 98
So it'll prob depend on your build date
But they make systems for either

Or just an inline pump: http://www.aeromotiveinc.com/products.php?prod=164

i dont understand the requirement for both an in tank and in line. wouldnt a large enough in tank do the job?

Yeah but I think there is a little more to it than just a giant in tank. IM not sure though to be honest. Fuel stuff is where I get a little foggy lol

well i have a walbro 255 with a KB boost a pump and i made right under 550 and have more room before i max out that pump setup. in a week or 2 it should be up in the 600s, hopefully. and im not getting a new fuel system yet. i would think you could at least pull off that setup (walbro 255 and BAP) that i have even though yours is prolly not a return style fuel system.
