stafford has already developed a fuel system utilizing an fmu for our returnless fuel system...

the concept behind that FMU looks similar to SF's.

Yeah, but its tunable - and that price doesn't include the pumps, lines, and fittings. Much easier and cheaper just to convert to return system...

What is the cost on that thing.. It looks like it would be better than SF kit. It is fully adjustable. You could tweak it with less problems on a dyno to get a good A/F ratio..

Good hunting on the web.

I found it on Jegs.com
http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...98&prmenbr=361

If I try this out does anybody want to buy my SF FMU and fuel pump? I like the idia of being able to adjust my fuel. The VAFC2 is not that good for BOOST applications to adjust fuel. I am going to think about this.

Any input would be great.

To be basic:

-Tap the end of the fuel rail and weld a fitting on
-attach a line from that fitting to a FPR
-atach a line from the FPR and run it to the fuel tank.
-drill a hole in the top of the fuel unit cover and install a fitting
-screw on the line
-take the intank FPR, and block it off (weld it, crimp the hell out of it, whatever. Just block it off)

Other than that... you can upgrade the injectors and pump if you need to.
