Just a quick note to our valued customers. The FPA-001 (F99-FPA) is not required for the j-body cars. We offer a W-body pump assembly which is the same as the F-body pump assembly less the external jig which was designed to mimic the diameter of the F-body pump. The W-body pump assembly FPA-007 offers the same performance at a lower price.
For most J-body cars the harness is not required from a performance perspective but as we all know the wiring is questionable at best for supporting the factory pump. It is an inexpensive investment which may help eliminate long-term electrical problems with the factory system.
Some people have noted a sealing problem with the venturi feed hose. This is attributed to customers not following the manual's procedure in dealing with the preparation of the hose. If the manual is followed properly this problem should not arise.
Please purchase your Racetronix product from vendors who support this forum. Thanks.
Wow that is a lot cheaper!

Mine fit perfectly, once installed, it isn't going anywhere, only difference was that it was approx. 1/16th taller than stock.
Oh ok, so this seems like a pretty quick swap once the unit is out of the tank huh?

Very quick, pull old one out, put new one in, connect the hose, attach clamp, switch the 2 wires for the adapter, put the sending unit back in the tank......... very easy, and mine is actually quieter than stock.
It even comes with the new sock filter that goes on the bottom, also I have no issues with mine when gas goes under 1/4, being that it has the venturi it shouldn't, but I know some have had these issues, none of those so far with this pump, it is giving me no issues at all.
