That kit with the stock fuel hat might get you 600-650 at best on E85.

In order to get Twin GT Pumps to be capable of supporting 700 RWHP on E85 you MUST use the following:

1) Fore Fuel Hat
2) Dual FPDM's
3) 40 AMP BAP set @ 50
4) -8 Fuel line
5) Wiring upgraded to BAP and Fuel Pumps.
6) Proper Tune with elevated fuel pressure. (50 psi minimum)

That kit should get you there. I would swap the hat for a triple though and add a third pump hooked to a Hobbs switch.

Where did you hear that? :??:

Inquiring minds want to do...X2 on where did you hear Fore was going out of business? I tried calling their number, but their mailbox was full and noone answered this morning.

Confirmed in another thread in Terminator Forums by Justin. Very sad...luckily I just called Lethal and they still had a triple return hat.

I did mine with a stock hat but I welded 3/8" stainless tubes feeding the fuel from the pumps outside the hat to two -8 AN fittings and from there went to a y fitting to -10, then to the filter and all the way to the fuel rails. I welded a -10AN fitting to the stock fuel rails. I also have twin GT pumps, with the lethal wiring upgrade and dual FPDMs and the BAP. I have 12ga wire directly to each pump now. I'm hoping for at least 650whp capability on e85.

I might just buy the stuff individual like how you posted it in the first place because I would still need to buy a -8 line kit

There is a thread on the Terminator section. I sent them an email 3 weeks ago about some parts, and they never answered back. A lot of people have tried calling/emailing them and no luck either. Finally someone (cant remember who) said they werent in business anymore, which would really suck for us. Hopefully they can bounce back and keep making great parts for our cars :rockon:

yep they are officially out of business. check out glenn's performance for return system to fit the bill for your needs, or call lethal and see what they recommend instead. They should start reproducing the fore stuff in next month or so, i'm positive either place wont let you down!!

 

[quicksilverdc]

yeah i called Lethal yesterday and all they have are triple pumps hats and they only have a few left:nonono:

i am running a stock unmodified hat with -8 feed line and dual gt pumps, bap at 50 and modded fpdm, my car ran out of fuel at 5300rpm making 602 rwhp. im going to work on modifiying my spare stock hat and rewire my pumps and see how much more i can get out of it.

 

[04SilverSerpent]

I ordered one from Lethal y'day morning, but they later called me back and told me they have no more return triple hat's unfortunately so they refunded my money. I later found one at blowbyracing thankfully, but they did not have the pump upgrade for a 3rd pump...so I called lethal back and ordered one of those with 3 -6 fittings and 1 -8

u need dual fpdms, and probably a hat. I'd do the fpdm for starters.

Well, I had twin GT pumps and was very disspointed. I didn't have any FPDM's to deal with or anything so this was just straight 13 volts of juice. They started runing out of fuel at 525rwhp. I then upgraded to the Fore triple hat.

So that pretty much put to rest all of the high flowing numbers floating around out there. Fore also confirmed that they flow considerably less than a Walbro. Just FYI.

Good numbers man! So did you end up getting the fore hat? Whats your complete fuel setup? 75% fpdc that means the pumps are good for atleast 700rwhp?

Here is mine:
Dual GT Pumps
40amp BAP
8an line upgrade
80lb injectors
Dual FPDMs

I am hoping to make 700rwhp on e85 on my 2.8H kenne bell, hopefully the fuel pumps won't run out of steam.
