Aeromotive A1000 In-Tank - Graph Inside
We've done several of these and the results are all excellent - I haven't seen many graphs that depict their capability so I thought I'd share...
This is an LS2 with 80 Lb injectors, A1000 In-Tank, and boost reference regulator.

While I had plenty of pressure and made good power on the dyno with an A 1000 and then the Eliminator pump, I ultimately had to change pumps due to their consistant cavitation issues once they heat up. I tried a few different configerations, including adding a cooler and addtional venting, but after about 45 minutes of driving, I always lost fuel pressure. I needed to pull over and let the pump and fuel cool off till I could get pressure back.
I tried using the fuel pump controler with RPM based and also tried the controller using a hob switch to turn the pumps voltage up and down with boost, but it still lost pressure at a certain point.
I then put in a Mangafuel 4301 pump, and have never looked back. It fit right in to my existing system, which already had ample fuel supply lines and cooling in place. The thing I like about the Magnafuel pump is that it does not need a controller or boost-a-pump. It runs my whole system at the same speed, with just being boost refferenced.
I understand that having the pump intank may help with cooling and supply, but my experience with the Aeromotive pumps, When used as a sole pump, is shared by at least 4 others that all switched to the Magnafuel pump and had their fuel issues go away...

Totally different set-up on your car. You aren't even close in comparing what you had vs this system.
Get you facts straight.

You have not seen my fuel system for 2 years, it's totally different now. Please explain your system. Does it use the A-1000 as a secondary or main pump?

Read the title IN-TANK totally different and not relevent ...maybe you should delete the criticism and start your own thread about your system?

I'm running the A1000 intake pump and it works great. I have the pump controller installed that allows for lower voltage below whatever rpm you set (helps with noise and it keeps the pump from flowing large amounts of fuel when not needed helping with any heat issues).
Prior I had a boost activated A1000 external pump. Between the 2 I have plently of pressure, it hits a solid 78lbs at 6500 rpm feeding my 427.
Maybe one day I'll disable one and see if both are even needed

I have a shop that is designing an intank a1000 for the 2003.5 and earlier. They are waiting on me to get the new parts broke in and drop the car off so they can install it.

After further investigation and research today, I do see that there are distinct differences between the gravity fed inline A-1000, and the intake setup. My apologies if I came off too harsh...

Besides all the hubba-ba-lew! Will this work in the '98's like mine? 
Or is it for the 2003.5+ years, not too many systems for the early ones like mine, but I sure wouldn't mind having a real good drop in over the set-up I got
Thanks,Matt
