Dear Forum,
.........My Google search shows that the only mechanical pump for a
Cleveland engine is from Robb Mc Performance. They offer two quality
units.
One supports 1100 hp and is $300! The other for lesser racers supports
550
hp and is only $200.
Unless there is an overlooked source or stock of unwanted and
unsold hipo Cleveland fuel pumps out there, I will shortly be ordering a
very serious fuel pump.
Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
Chuck,
If you would like to consider a second option you might want to look into
an electric fuel pump. Simple to install and you don't need a huge pump
either (no matter what anyone says). I installed a standard "universal"
electric fuel pump many years ago that I purchased from Autozone for something
like $49. It is compact in size (less than 2" in diameter and 2" in
length) but feeds plenty of fuel. My engine dynoed at 540hp and it is run quite
"spiritedly" and has no issues whatsoever with fuel starvation. Oh, the
pump is feeding a Demon 750 double pumper.
Your mileage will vary.
Jim
