I have a EFI 302 with an RCI fuel cell in the bed and will be looking to purchase an electric in line fuel pump. Just wondering what others are running.

We are running an Aeromotive 1000 with a 40 micron filter before and a 10 micro filter after the pump, a picture is below. We used an Aeroequip AN-8 90* bulkhead fitting to go through the bed. We used an AN-6 90* for the return line and the same setup with an AN-4 for the vent line. We used a top return line to prevent aeration of the fuel close to the pick-up (feed) line and also not to return warmed fuel close to the feed line. Just be sure to mount your pump lower than the tank.

i'm doing a job now ('72 302", but carbed) which is some performance, like the manifold (edelbrock), carb (edelbrock), ignition (mallory), headers (hedmen).

i just picked up a Purolator electrical fuel pump at PEP Boys for $32.99...before tax. that should be good enough for this 302 project, however, the truck isn't for offroading or dragin, just mainly driving around with a big head.
