DIY Comming soon
Im going to be doing a DIY on duel walbro 255 in tank fuel pumps. The DIY will consist strapping down the second pump running a -6 line and what to do when you get to the fuel rail with 2 fuel lines in the engine compartment. Wish me luck

this was a pointless post, oh wait, I'll set the date on my calendar so I can be the first to read the DIY, thanks

Ok guys this morn I managed to strap the other pump to the assembly. Ill tell you it takes some finagling but it fits with out any modifcation to the oric assembly. Im at lunch now so when I get back I will be taping the top with a bulk head fitting to have my feed port. Stay tunned....
Oh and mr sarcasm This is a easy way to give ur car more fuel rather than going with a sumped tank and huge pump. This still apears stock and can be reversed at any time. so please if ur not interested please dont comment.

I like readiing DIY's whether they apply to something I'd like to do or not just to learn something new

I assume you are putting the two pumps in parallel, right? As opposed to a "booster" or series pump configuration.
I also assume that you are doing it solely for more flow rate. Are you looking for a little redundancy in case of failure as well?
What flow rate are you targeting? Are the factory fuel feed and return (from regulator) lines large enough or will you be upgrading them as well?
I have looked at some fuel pump controllers (MSD, Aeromotive) that send more than 12V to the pump for more flow rate when needed.
Sounds like a cool project, good luck. I will be watching your thread.
