sorry, i'm not quite sure what this does and what difference it will make, but am interested to know and maybe purchase from you. ive got a beetle with an 1870cc motor running twin kadrons and extractors, would this be suitable to use with my setup and what affect would it have ? I'm guessing it just provides a better flow of fuel and stops the car starving of petrol. but anyways... sorry to be an idiot, but i would like to know.
cheers,
Matt.

Yes Matt,
this is what You will need for Your larger engine...
A stock fuel pump would probably run out of fuel...
I've heard of 1835s running out of fuel...
with twin dual throat Webers...

You could try to get a standard pump to do the job,
but going electric is better IMHO...

Most hot engines would be running electric fuel pumps...
You may need a regulator too...

cheers

G'day Matt

The Holley Blue are designed for the really big engines - I was intending to use it on a 2110cc, and this is probably pretty small for what the Holley Blue can cope with.

I'm not right up to speed on it all, but from what I can work out I think it will more than supply you 1835 with fuel, a lot of thee guys running full blown drag cars use them.

As I said some guys with more experience maybe able to comment but I seriously doubt your engine would ever run out of fuel with a Holley Blue - I'm pretty sure you will need to run a regulator but thes cane be sourced pretty easy.

Cheers

Yes, I agree,
You would never run out of fuel with one of these... Electric is the best way to go...
Pump will probably be too high a pressure, as many electric fuel pumps are...
so you will need a regulator....

cheers

Yep as Brad and Lee note, the holley blue will be more than enough (I run one with my 2L type IV in the ragtop). Will definitely need a regulator as I know dellortos and webers like around 2.5-3psi which is way less than what the pump will put out.
