With the closing of Barry Grant, (popular fuel pump of sportsman racers), finding a good alternative has been a question of many people. Who has a reliable pump, that can be used with multiple fuel types, pays contingency, and will NOT FAIL! The answer is WELDON!
I had the same problem as many, my BG400 fuel pump started to leak, I took it out and borrowed a fuel pump to finish the race (Maple Grove Divisional) and ended in a Runner Up finish. I went home and bought a seal replacement kit from a company on Ebay that claims to have original Barry Grant seal kits. I bought them, replaced them, installed the pump on my car, and went racing. In Epping divisional,3rd round I was shut off in the water box for the fuel pump leaking ..... after a long aggrivating ride home, I decided to get a new pump and avoid this happening ever again.
After some research I came to the decision that Weldon would be the pump for me, the following is the reason I picked Weldon:
1) it bolts direct into the same bolt locations as the BG400
2) it is able to handle ANY type of fuel (gas, methanol, e85, ect.)
3) they pay contingency
4) the pumps that we get are designed for the US millitary (which can NOT FAIL)
5) the pump has a LIFETIME WARRANTY ...... thats right LIFETIME WARRANTY
At the first race I went to with my new fuel system, (Atco Divisional) the car ran flawlessly, in face flawlessly enough to make it back to the finals once again .... Another runner up finish, no leaks, no problems, and just a DAM GOOD PUMP. I am not a rep, and not anyway offiliated with weldon, just a fellow racer that is excited to see someone step up to the plate and hit a home run with race products designed for the sportsman racer in mind.
So spread the word .... want to get a new fuel pump with all the bells and whistles, WELDON is the way to go ......
