Im sure my fuel pump is probably stock with over 100k miles. I know its a good time to replace it. Is it worth upgrading? What fuel pump should i buy and anbody on here use the racetronix kit? I know doing it isnt gonna be fun but it the racetronix kit an easy instal? This is for the 98

I went with the Racetronix 255LPH pump in my car and it was a cinch to install. No complaints so far.

FWIW, a 340gph = 255 lph :)

Most companies advertise it as the 255 so he'll most likely spot that before 340.

For some reason the Buick community call 'em 340's... go figure.

Get the racetronix kit. I have the racetronix kit and it was easy to install.

BTW 255 LPH is NOT 340 GPH it is 67.37 GPH, i would suspect the 340 number is lb/hr in fuel. Keep in mind the weight of fuel changes as the temperature of it changes. Best figure is to use 0.5 lb of fuel per hr per hp. I think a nice walbro or in tank racetronix 255lph should be plenty enough for you as i know there are some cars running mid 10's on those pumps.

***edit - If you decide to go external fuel pump i have alot of 6 an line and also 2 inline fuel pumps and reusable filters that you can use.

I got access to a lift so i was gonna do it the right way and keep the intank pump. Im gonna drop the rear and replace the axle seal that leaks and drop the tank. Me and my buddy can def do it in half a day, Just as long as the racetronix is really plug and play.
