ok i know the pump is sufficient, sorry i am really asking if it will be able to suck enough fuel through the stock 1980 selector valve? i know pumps are better as pushers and not pullers.... thanks

yes, we did the exact same truck with dual tanks and working selector valve.

awesome! thanks so much... that take care of one issue
Guess it works. I wouldn't have guessed it would suck well enough through the valve all the way to the tanks. I'm running two tanks, and putting two pumps per tank. The stock selector valve is not strong enough for that fuel pressure, but the aftermarket version is (up to 70 psi or something). Also, with two pumps, if one happens to fail, you do have another. Also, intake pumps are somewhat quieter.
Which aftermarket selector vavle are you useing?Originally Posted by dothedew
yes please detail your setup.... i will possibly be turboing this thing in the future.... so i will need a better setup...
I'm doing an LQ4 swap in my 86. Got rid of the second tank and also ran a 255 in line Walbro. What are you doing for a vent line?
