Default Aeromotive Stealth Fuel Pumps - www.PartsTaxi.com

Finally, a solution to your Corvette’s fuel system needs. No more drilling your fuel tanks, no more risking pump failure in a 1, 2, or 3 pump set ups, no more surge tanks, no more mess. Aeromotive has engineered a patent-pending, complete drop-in fuel system available for C6 and late C5 Corvettes. The system provides a single Eliminator Fuel Pump capable of supporting big HP. The best part, it’s a complete drop-in assembly into your factory tank that still incorporates the factory jet siphon system. Now you can plumb a true return-style system into your Corvette without the worry of the siphon system and while using the factory fuel tank.

Supports 1000HP Forced Induction or 1300 HP NA
Aeromotive A1000 Corvette Stealth Fuel Pump Kit - $625.95

Support 1400HP Forced Induction or 1900 HP NA
Aeromotive Eliminator Corvette Stealth Fuel Pump Kit - $789.97

Is this really a drop in system like was discussed here? http://forums.corvetteforum.com/1574997990-post9.html

I can't picture exactly how it would drop in and connect to the OEM lines.

looks like you need to run braided lines, fuel rails, regulator. (purchased separately)

According to the instruction manual:

Utilizes the factory tank, o-ring, lock ring and mounting location
• Includes all necessary fittings and hardware to plumb the pump into your tank.

Isn't the fly in this ointment the return line?

Sure, it drops right into your tank. It even plumbs into the crossover. The rub is hooking up the feed line.

Does anyone know how much power this would support at boost referenced corvette fuel pressures?

Yea.....I feel those numbers are determined at a lower pressure. Not near 60-70-80psi. Aeromotive pumps drop off pretty much as the fuel pressure goes up.

These numbers were flow tested from base 58psi. Obviously high pressure will lower you're flow so I highly recommend running a larger injector to keep fuel pressure down in order to keep flow up. These pumps will still support the advertised power levels with corvette fuel pressure.

So what is the final answer, does this work with the factory lines?

With an array of fittings you could adapt it but I don't suggest it. You'll quickly reach the limit of the stock lines once you step up to this fuel pump.

I understand what you are saying but for those of us in the 600-700rwhp range that are all using stock lines with no problems. Wouldn't it be feasible to have a lesser pump that could handle this range? 90% of us don't strive to get to the 900 to 1000 hp range and don't need that much fuel, however we do need something better than stock. I would prefer not to run a BAP or dual pumps if I don't have to. I believe you could sell hundreds of these if not thousand if they were a "true" drop in and go. Just my .02
