    where did you get power for the pump?

    i came off the grey wire from the fuel pump, when you first turn the key on the pump primes up just like the fuel pump then shuts off, once you crank the engine the fuel pump kicks on as to the EWP

    So did you use a relay of some sort, or just that wire from the fuel pump??

    yes i used a relay, dang whats his name? ( thinking ) krambo, i followed his build on silveradoSS, there was a harness i had gotten with relay and all, think it was like 35 bux ( not sure ) anyway find his build thread.. and you'll be set.. personally i think on a blown or forced induction truck/car the ewp is the way to go, i never had a mechanical pump that kept my block sooo cool, nothing over 180 and usually stays around 170..

    also dont understand why one would need a idiot light to know when there ewp isnt working? my truck shutsdown when it reaches a maxed temp through tuning
