After over 4 years, I've finally replaced a faulty door lock actuator on my drivers door. I need some smaller hands. LOL talk about tight spaces!

I already have cams,lash adjusters,cam tower bolts and a few other odds and ins. The valves,valve springs,rockers etc is where the money was.
Just reuse your rockers. I paid 300 bucks for 32 valves and 32 springs. Idk where you're getting 1200 bucks at.

Never used it. I have a a relay setup utilizing the stock relay to energize a secondary relay that get the pump feed directly from the battery. I have a E85 approved 275 Deatschwerks now. My walbro died.

I was told this is why I should utilize it....
Any truth to it?
"the lightnings computer varies the voltage to the fuel pumps according to load. ours does not so this uses the tps signal to run the fuel pumps according to the load"
I know Mike @MadEnt was pretty truthful and these were his words originally

I mean that would make sense, I never knew that. I just used a 255 but my swap yielded just a tad over stock lightning power. Don't know what that controller would've cost new but sounds like an alright deal considering the pump is 100 new

I'll try to get a wiring schematic. I just ran new wires to both pumps.
