GLH,

I will try to post a pic of my set-up this weekend. I have a stainless manifold that is screwed into the stock pump that also allows me to plumb in an electric pump. They both work together so I never have a pressure or volume drop. I am running a Whipple and I am feeding a big 850 carb.

I had those changed too, it was not the culprit.
I hate to quote Clinton but "are you feeling my pain!"

GLH

I would like to see that Dave thank you. Where did you get the manifold?

BTW I'm feeding twin Holleys 700 CFM's per mills, and feeding is definitely the apropos term!

More motivation for the contributers, this is broadening my minimal knowledge thanks!

I have been through most of the mechanical fuels pumps with many of the posted hassles. This includes that new Holley mechanical 20 series. I found a great solution. The CV Products custom billet mechanical pump with the 7.5 lbs. spring holds 6 lbs.+ steady at 6800 RPM on 780 hp. This pump eliminates the need for re-rigging, fuel pump auto shut off requirements, fuel returns or pressure regulators. I tapped the top of the CV pump and installed a barbed fitting to provide for an over flow to the carb.
Downside? It is a little pricey, but not as costly as the alternatives.

GLH:: I have the same setup from the factory,,, Stock Merc 600sc 1997 year.... Factory put both the Elec and the Manual pumps on with a tee in the supply line, then a pressure Gage on the the fuel rail at the Carb.. I was getting bad readings at the Gauge so I installed a Liquid Pressure Gauge with Regulator at the Carb.. with this setup I have as much pressure as I want ,,, Have seen 10-11 lbs when doing the adjustments ,,, I set the reg at 7-8 and it will maintain 5-6 at wide open ,,, Keep it simple and make sure that U have no restrictions..

To build on what 42MTI said (Post #8),the 800SC & 900SC use a different pump (p/n 821031) than the 600SC. After following 'more motivation', we're all probably thinking, who cares?
