Any comments? > Ray Goree I am doing the same thing, I've install 2 Facet fuel pumps. one for each wing tank, pumping to a Header Tank. However, from their I am installing sequencial fuel injection with dual fuel feed pumps. The same problem exist as with a injection system or carbuetor. The pumps by it's nature need to deliver more fuel than the engine needs. I think the Facets will deliver 9 GPH +or - at 5psig = or -. The performance may need to be throttled. This can be done with return tubing back to the suction side of the pump or the header tank with a orifice or needle valve to adjust pressure and flow to the engine. You will also need a fuel pressure gauge. That's what I am doing anyway. KRRon
