Stew there are guys running a twin in bucket set up. Actually nonnieselman is trying to put one together right now for his......insurance for him i guess. But he is going to run the bosh 044 instead of the walbro.
sorry for the thread jack yes i am purchasing the kit from racetronix. they are the only one except lengifielter that has a complete kit that they will sell. I called mangnacharger and some dude blew me off when i asked about fuel pumps and he asked what kind of application i was using it for, i said turbo and he was like we should get some in about 3 weeks call back. wtf i was gonna order one that day haha.

I am almost positive the connection and the application are the same! The years of the pumps don't change. Some will tell you to go with a factory style pump so that its done right, but if you need more step up. But i would just find a cheap factory replacement not some junk from a auto parts store unless you wanna drop the tank in two weeks to do another one haha

I am going with this kit from Racetronix versus the ones I had linked in the OP. Once it gets here I'll do the swap & see how it goes as my pressure is dropping fast. There is whine as well. I am assuming this pretty much rules out a fuel regulator problem.

The system for my SS will not work with the Tahoe according to Racetronix.

That was the email I received from Racetronix when I asked them if it would work.

I find it hard to believe that it won't work...how different can they be? Maybe that link they gave has something better? I know the one I put in my car worked great and could not have been easier to install...except the whole drop the tank part.
That is similar to the response I received at 1:38am after waiting a few days.

I will find out when it gets here on the 11th. The only issue I could see is that the psi at startup isn't where it should be resulting in multiple priming before it fires up.

So far so good. Everything was plug & play & appears to be functioning properly. PSI is maintaining at idle & is up at partial acceleration. I haven't had an opportunity to do a WOT run yet as there are speed traps galore.
