JB, thanks. I see this part uses 14G wire. Aero is recommending 10G (!) for the same wiring.
The fuse that came with the booster is a 40A; I think the Aeromotive can draw up to 30A.
Unfortunately, I am a chem E, not an EE, so I do not know if the 14G wire on this part that you sent me link to is sufficient for 30A.
Theory is one thing, but in practice, is it your experience that 14G is sufficient?
Thanks

How many amps will 10 gauge wire handle? (askinglot.com)

All wiring is rated by the foot, and if in a house conduit, the number of wires also plays a part due to heat but that’s getting super deep.. So let’s simplify by experience.
I can’t recall offhand the highest amp rate/foot off hand besides somewhere around 10amp/10’ as being close. You are well under that between the FPDM and the pump.
If it helps you rest I used this kit on mine along with their added dual pump relay kit and all my power came from the battery on a fused 0G wire to a distribution box mounted just to the right of the spare tire on the back wall of the back seat. From there I fed a speaker amp, a sub amp, and power for the fuel pump relays.
The only part of the original wiring bung I retained was for fuel level sender. I took the other two wires and simply wrapped them around the assembly for the time being. The new bung that I showed you powered my twin 340’s with its four wires. I no longer used the FPDM as I went to a return style fuel loop. Anyways my pumps were so efficient that Jeff at Marty’s said we could easily dial her up mid to upper 800’s at the wheels and every supporting system was up to par (except the current clutch and lack of head studs) Plenty of fuel, air, maf…
They also claim it’s not to be used in returnless fuel systems and yet we’ve done it for decades without failure and adding boostapumps as well.
Anyways, here was mine.

JB, what would you say is the best method for making the hole in the hatch cover for the new bulkhead? Is a drill press required? Will and hand held drill do?All wiring is rated by the foot, and if in a house conduit, the number of wires also plays a part due to heat but that’s getting super deep.. So let’s simplify by experience.
I can’t recall offhand the highest amp rate/foot off hand besides somewhere around 10amp/10’ as being close. You are well under that between the FPDM and the pump.

These work great for thin/sheet metal. You can use a hand drill.

You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference
I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard

This is the best to use. Hand drill is fine but I like to drill a pilot hole and not burn up the step bit. I honestly recall it being a little difficult to drill thru. Could have been my bit I suppose. Get a Milwaukee brand step bit from Home Depot. All others are junk.

Blazen & JB,
Just back from 8 day golf boondoggle (4 days of driving, 4 days of golf), and getting ready to install the new fuel pump and new connector from racetronix.
I will go by a Milwaukee step bit.
Thanks for all your help. If you are looking for golf lessons, I'm in your debt and at your service :-)
I'll send photos of pump/connector install

Hey guys,
Willy and Nilly are over and we were getting ready to drill into the hatch for the bulkhead / connector mentioned above. Then Will and Nilly suggested slowing down a bit. Ya know, think about it.
Well, when Willy and Nilly say slow down, it's a good idea to do so.
So here's the questions the three of us had:
Attachment 52270
The oring in the photo would wind up, after install, on the top side/outside of the tank, while the silver colored push ring clamp would be inside the tank, correct? (This is what JB's photos above look like to me)
Also, the diameter of the plastic cylinder that goes through the tank measures just a teeny bit over 10mm diameter. So...its seems drilling a hole 10mm diameter is needed, correct?
Thanks guys.

What do you gain by installing a new wiring bulkhead?
Your using a single pump and IIRC the stock wiring is 12AWG the racetronix bulkhead is 14AWG.
Not an upgrade IMHO.....

Stock is 14g as well but I seem to recall the Racetronix 14g a bit beefier under the insulation.
