The latest part number is 862264A7

if you need one I can get you a current brand brand new kit. With warranty from the day you buy it.

Just return the fuel to the tank and be done with it. If you can do the work yourself, you can do it for about $50 worth of hose and fittings. I have done numerous posts in the past about how to get the return to the tank. It's really pretty easy and you don't need another pump that can fail. On top of that, the add on pump is nothing more than a bandaid.

You dont think it will run out of fuel? The cool fuel pump pushes better than it pulls. I have thought about it.

You're miles ahead by getting rid of the factory pumps and replacing with an aeromotive A1000, also if you are doing any power adders or upping the hp at all the factory cool fuel is very restrictive for anything other than stock. depends on where you want to go with it. you can even rig the pump down by the cool fuel and have it as a bolt on unit.
