What's everyone's favorite fuel pump brand? I had a Walbro last 5 years, I believe it wasn't a fake one.
Walbro, Bosch, Ac delco/Delphi I always try to stick with. A LOT of fakes you have to watch out for though...
Yeah that's what scares me, are these fakes found on summit or jegs?
I need at least a 340lph 80gph 60 psi pump.
I almost always get my stuff from summit and from what I can tell always been genuine. Another thing is summit is great about returns too if there’s a problem in my experience
I agree completely. When I ordered a radiator and went thru 3 attempts to get one to me that wasn't damaged, Summit handled it every time and didn't give me any grief.
@Babaganoosh, don't know if you saw it in my thread, but Walbro is now coming in a TI Automotive branded box. They've owned Walbro for years, but just recently started transitioning the brand name over to theirs.
I had Bosch pumps in both saddle tanks for over 7 years without an issue.
I went with a walbro on the last build. My two other trucks have the Delco EP381, one failed within a year, the other has been fine for the last 5 years+
AC Delco
Only had one Walbro, after it failed prematurely I went to the AC Delco a loooong time ago.

Idk but my 10 year old Walbro 255 is still working great 
Looks like the new ones or the fake ones are bad.Idk but my 10 year old Walbro 255 is still working great
Kind of like optima batteries
Drove the truck to church today, on the way to lunch with the family I sliced one of the tires. Sooo looks like 4 new tires it is. 
sliced a tire between church and lunch ? AZ road aren't that bad. So what are we thinking ? Toyo's Nitto's General ?
Well my brother said it was sliced but now it's holding air. It was leaking really bad when I went to eat. These tires have a fate code from 2014 but was hoping to get a little more out of them sense they don't have many cracks.
I have a 33 with a 20 inch wheel on it right now... looks terrible but got the job done.

Also, I have 466 miles on the holley terminator x with cam.
Well yesterday I put the aired up tire on the truck and it's still holding air. One thing I have noticed is my hub is really loose, like a qtr inch of play in either direction. I have the stage 8 locking nuts to put on but is there something I'm doing wrong or is this just the limiting factor of a 10b?

Installation error or bearings are shot.
I have had it come loose a few times, always just tightened the nut and it was good. When the axle was built new bearings were used.
Doesn't take long for bearing to fail if running to loose.
Hmmm, I do need to pop it off and take a look. I really dislike the hub sockets, I think half the reason they are loose is every time I go to tighten them the socket slips off the nut and I can't get a full turn.
Found the tire leak, moved the truck and it went down to 7psi over night. Don't think I hit anything and maybe it just cracked over time?
