Here is a little info to help you to size a fuel pump.
horse power x.5#s = pounds of fuel per hour. pounds per hour -: 60 = gallons per hour. gph -: 6= gpm. here is a example . 500hp x.5=250#s 250# -: 60= 4.16 gph 4.16gph -: 6=.69 gpm at what psi you want to run at. if you have any questions I can help you with feel free to call we are a Sx-performance fuel pump dealer. 586-790-8880 ext 251 |
let me correct myself
fuel pump size.
typically at wide open throttle , full power, an engine requires 0.5 lbs of fuel per hp every hour. a gallon of gas weights approximately 6.0 lbs. exp. 500hp x .5=250lbs per hour 250lbs per hour-:- 6.0=41.66 gallons per hour 41.66gph -:- 60=.69 gpm sorry for the confusion (bad day) |
