GLT fuel pump flow rate? (quite urgent!)

Hi, does anyone have to hand the number of litres/gallons these flow per hour?

As you may know, I currently have one from a mk3 GLT courtesty of FJ, but we think it may not flow enough to suit the 2.3 turbo in my 360.

Any fast help would be appreciated! As I am looking around for an uprated pump at present, however if I can get by with the GLT it will do for the time being.

Cheers, Liam.

Thanks for that mate. That sounds somewhere about right (for the 2.0) from what I've been reading on other pumps etc.

You wouldn't happen to know what the 7/840 turbo pump flow rates are by any chance? I have a feeling they will be more like 180 ish.

Cheers Ben [EDIT: VND] That link is interesting. It seems that the 740 pumps flow around the same as the GLT then.

I really should pull mine off (lol) and pump a litre through, but I'm sick of being on my back! Just chilling online for a bit cos my wrist is fucked too. :/

Ah balls. [Another EDIT] just realised I haven't PM'd your reply lol.

Yeah, will be good to hear it fire up again. Only in the right chassis this time. :P :lol:

From Haynes:
360 Injection
Flow - 120l/hr
Injection pressure - 35.6 psi (set by regulator)

From brickboard
Injection pressure - 35psi idle (set by regulator), 43psi on wide throttle, pump apparently 80psi capable
Flow for testing - 1/2 to 1 gal/min = 136-272 l/hr

From web - 200l/hr is good for 500hbp

Probably would be a good idea for adding extra boost.

You mention 'getting' a GLT pump, was the car a carb engine before? If so you need a pre-pump or sucking pump to get the fuel out of the tank, unless you have fitted a bottom outlet GLT tank aswell.

Cheers for that Ride_on. Not too far away then, well for standard boost. It will do for now. Anyway, I have much beigger issues atm. To the WIP thread! :lol:

BTW it was a carb yes, I don't seem to need the pre-pump mate as the fuel come sup to the rail without issue.
