Both of us might be able to give
The FCC is just an option for people that don't want to redo their entire fuel system. It's intended to feed off of the manual pump but can be fed off an electric pump.
It's like the fuel system equivalent of 6" lift blocks. I can see it working, but it sure doesn't seem like the best way...
I'm sure they have.
But a stock engine doesn't have the VE to utilize gains in the size of the throttle body size. And with the fuel/timing map correct on both systems, there is likely little power difference
On a modified engine, different story.
Seems backwards doesn't it?
Yeah the FCC is more focused on applications that still have mechanical fuel pumps. I don't think FiTech is necessarily targeting users with already TBI equipped vehicles. I'm only considering it because the motor I'm swapping in is carburetor equipped.
I doubt the FiTech would outperform factory TBI on a stock motor. It would start to look better with a more modified motor, especially for people that don't have access or comfort with burning custom chips for the factory system.

No wining
It does. So I'll repeat my question. Why is this a popular solution? Is it that hard to redo the fuel system with a return line?
I agree with this likely being a good piece of their customer base.
We need a ck5 user with a dyno so we can all dyno our stuff
It's a PITA. Not sure how many FUTech folks are using the 2 tank system. We know Skunk isn't!
I think it can be with older muscle cars and the like. Plus if you think about it the FCC just makes it that much more of a easy bolt-on solution. Sometimes 'easiest' will outweigh 'best'. Or else they wouldn't still be selling lift blocks! LOL
Then why not just run the mechanical pump and let it be? We had a tiny flame war going on about this last year, a mechanical pump should be able to supply the fuel rail just like the electric pump does (though it takes a couple seconds to come up to pressure).
I'm running a blazer tank. Lol
In your pickup? Is that a present tense "I am" or a future plan?
Pbbth!!!
Well now that you're being technical... it's actually sitting on the floor in my garage about 10' from my truck. So future present tense
Curious to see how it fits. This build thread is open to all builds so feel free to post up in here.
