MID12sSSS Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 So im wanting to get rid of the Walbro 255 in-line kit pump and go to a "more flow" in-tank pump. I was turned onto the 340lph Stealth by another member on the forum. After reading up on it, seems to be exactly what i want. I called to get the part number for the pump I need to fit my 03 SS and ask about a plug and play harness adapter. Brett (Aeromotive tech line) told me due to the return style fuel system on the 2003s, they didnt have a pump for that application. Is that true?! I guess what are my other options if Aeromotive doesnt offer a pump for my application? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1SCSS Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 I don't have any help for you on the 340 pump, however I can tell you that I am doing the Bosch 044 pump right now and it is a pain to get it wedged into the OEM bucket! My bucket looks like swiss cheese :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MID12sSSS Posted May 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 Haha thats what i was afraid of. The 340 description said it fits MOST OEM buckets without modification. I was hoping i was included in the MOST category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2603 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 it fits right in there. Im running one right now but mine is returnless. Are you just worried it wont fit? Im thinking about trying to stick another one in there and have duel 340s but I havent went to indepth with it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MID12sSSS Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Im sure it'll fit in the tank, but i have a return style fuel system and Aero told me they dont make a pump that will work with my truck. I asked John and he said that they do. He has installed them before. I just cant get a part # cuz Aero said they dont offer one when i called.

Link2603 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I don't really see there being a difference between the two pumps. I would compare other pumps like walbro and see if there is different part numbers for your year and mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ls2silvy Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Works fine man, just have to run a submersible fuel line from the pump over to the internal fuel filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2003_SuperSport Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) Why run duals? Just go 416LPH Walbro and run E85 LOL Thats right you don't got E85 But you can still go 416 and run pump gas and have more than enough flow for any future mods... Just my .02 Edited May 2, 2013 by 2003_SuperSport (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2603 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Who doesn't have e85? I got it but it like 45 mins from my house lol. So can that walbro 416 handle say 800-900hp on e85? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MID12sSSS Posted May 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) ^^ Is this directed at me? I dont plan on running duals. Just a single 340. Im ditching the 255 in line. I was just caught off gaurd when aeromotive said they dont offer a pump for my truck, since its an 03 with a return style fuel system. But i know of others who have installed a 340lph stealth in an 03. But like JR was saying, it can be done with running a line from the pump to the internal filter. I just wasnt sure exactly what that meant. E85 would be nice Edited May 3, 2013 by MID12sSSS (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2603 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 i think it was directed towards me since i metioned running dual pumps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
