Best Fuel Pump for Weber Twin 45s
1) Numerous folks suggest using the stock CIS fuel pump and adding a regulator to bring it down to the 3 or 4 psi for the carbs. Not so sure i like that idea, seems like total overkill having fuel injection pump with high psi and then having to regulate it down. The other question that is raised going this route is fuel flow.
2) Because of fuel flow issues some have suggested the Facet fuel pump and again regulating it down to the required pressure. Obviously Facet is not a fule injection pump so regulating down from the 4.5psi to the 3 or 4 isnt so bad.
3) Other have suggested a low pressure high flow pump good for 3 or 4psi with no regulator.
lastly i dont think the webers need a return line so i presume i can just remove the original return for the CIS and call it good. any suggestions are appreciated. thanks

I have a KR 16v engine running twin 40 Webers. Was fitted with a Facet cube solid state pump, but suffered from fuel starvation.
I've since bought the silver top competition pump.
