I noticed my fuel pump is leaking at the upper gasket. There's 2 gaskets that apparently connect 3 partys of the main body of the fuel pump. Both gaskets stick out of the main body of the pump 1/8" all the way around.

I stupidly sprayed brake cleaner on the pump to shine it up, not thinking that it would eat at the gaskets.

Can you buy just those gaskets? Or do I need to buy a new pump. I hope not, as this one is about 1 year old

Someone mentioned they suck. They leak and never stop....lol.

I have to second that... Edelbrock fuel pumps are really poor quality.
Even my Edelbrock Rep told me not to buy them

whad do u reccommend ? nothin fancy needed. i've see carter pumps for 20, summit brand for 40, holley 60+ etc

I have used Carter mechanical pumps on many engines. They are just about as reliable as a stock pump (they last many years) but move about 2X the volume of a stock pump. They are my go-to pumps for street driven performance engines.

what do you guys think of the stock early z28 smallblock pumps?i picked one brand new up yesterday for 15 bucks..looks just like the reg. stocker just with a huge fuel bowl,can they support 400+?

btw i had the holley equivalent to that eddy pump you are talking about and mine also never quit leaking

i see carter pump rated from 6.5-8 psi...that's sufficient...right? i have my regulator set to about 6.5-7....


nothing different from one to the next?

those ones are only 18 bucks

I run the stock replacement pump for a 1970 camaro 350 LT1 on mine.

It does a pretty good job. Car runs 12.2's @ 118 mph.

Although I did have to install a small elec. pump out back, as the LT1 pump felt like it wasnst keeping up with the engine on the 1-2 gear shift at 6400 rpm.

But this is what could be a mid 11 second car.

Oh yeah, I got the little elec. pump wired up to only kick in at WOT.

If you have under say about 425-435 HP then the 70 LT1 pump should be fine for you.
