Anybody know the stock fuel pump flow rating, liters per hour or equivalent?
If you have one it's easy to measure yourself. Disconnect the fuel line at the filter and hook the line up to a catch can. One of the wires in the OBDII connector will energize the fuel pump. You can measure it for a given amount of time and then calculate the volume or you go for a measured volume and calculate the time. I like tests like this but I don't have a stock unit around here other than an old OBS pump.
The only reference I found for the pumps show 155.2LPH but am not too sure if its the same as yours. They ref EP381.

Don't our trucks run on the 12 Volt system?
yes 12volt I would always recommend after full bolt ons to put an inline fuel pump in for sure makes a big difference in FP and also adds alot to pice of mind
I got tired of trying to figure mine out so i just installed an in-line last week. It's true i do have peace of mind now!!
