System.. Expensive
No flames, similiar to what I am doing, but a
couple of questions.
I used an Andair 'gascolator' prior to the pumps,
to keep trash from getting in the pumps, I then used GM high pressure filters
*after* the pumps (one for each), to final filter the fuel before the
injectors.
A local plane (supercharged) had an injector
plug, causing detonation when that cylinder leaned out. The maker of the
system claims that the pumps shed particles from wear and that you need a
filter after the pumps.

Expensive
This is
hopefully my final design for my fuel system.
1. Use Andair
duplex valve and mount to floor with extension. The 10 has a console.
2. Use
(expensive) Y blocks to reduce bends and provide sensor ports.
3. Filter before
and after pumps.
4. Auto fail
over circuit to switch on second pump at 28 psi.
5. High pressure
bleeder.
6. 3/8 lines.
7. All cabin
fuel plumbing mounted to plate on floor.
8. Firewall
bulkheads on cool side of engine.
The pressure
drop and flow rate of the AC Delco Filters is unknown...AC Delco will not
provide specifications. Will need to measure.
This is the same
basic configuration the EGG's are running so it should provide a larger
group of planes with this design in the air sooner.
Flame
away!!
