    1/4 npt, don’t remember the exact pressure it supplied but it didn’t need a regulator if I remember right.

    Looks like it might be a TA 1534c, but don't quote me on it...Jim

    I did buy it directly from them which I see they don’t offer it anymore. It came chromed already, it’s a USA made unit.

    If this is a 1534c , then it makes plenty of pressure . I had to plumb a return style regulator in between this pump and a Demon 850, because at end of the track , it would overwhelm the rear float bowl and flood on the exit road. I have a fuel pressure guage installed now to monitor fp . Jim

    Jim can I ask what kind of fuel pressure is your gauge was reading?

    7 without reg at idle. FP guage was on fuel log. Added regulator and have since moved FP guage to hood , so I can see FP from behind the wheel. No real world experience yet, still a touch of snow on the ground...hope this is helpful.....JIM

    Just wondering if 1000 thermal quad could handle the seven psi without a regulator.

    I'm thinking my issue was that mechanicals can vary in pressure, depending on rpms . 5-6 at the LINE perhaps 8 at WOT down track....Jim

    Was that using a factory Fuel line from the gas tank ?

    Paul. That's a great deal for the fuel pump but I'm going to have to pass because of the current circumstances I have started to batten down the hatch an get ready for what's to come. Looks like the toys are going to have to wait for a while. Thank China An some current an past politicians on the right and left that's sold this country out.
