This HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) lift pump is a 2nd Gen based lift pump that has been retrofitted with the proper spring to supply a safe 15psi to your VE injection pump. This is the Base "Budget" kit with no add-ons besides what is pictured.

At what power level do you need to upgrade your factory diaphragm lift pump? Here is my conclusion of that. My stock injector truck with all of the pump mods from Ratman Performance along with the pump turned up and a stock HX35 made 281hp, it ran great BUT as soon as I came off idle the factory diaphragm pump would go from 4psi to 0psi immediately. While there was still volume there to make the horsepower there was already no pressure even with only stock injectors, this puts a lot of stress on the vane pump inside of your VE and risks it seizing. With all of this being said this pump is absolutely a requirement for anything larger than a stock injector. BUT it is also great insurance on a truck just with stock injectors.

Next most asked question.. How much power can this lift pump support? This is also "if" "then" answer, with the stock fuel supply line this will support 475hp. After that the factory supply from the tank becomes the restriction, so you would need to purchase a sump of your choice with -8 or 1/2" line to run all the way to the lift pump inlet. Once this is complete you will be good for 600hp.
