On their Website, I found the flowmax300 which flows 300gph and at 5 microns but no 500gph. Is it new?

Re: Fuel Pump Advice Needed:

I have roughly 300 hours on the Hp version of the Aeromotives which are supposedly good for 1000hp? 5/8 out of tank to #12 line into Eickert filter/seperators, #12 to pump. #10 out to a fuel log feeding pair 950's, pressure reg keeps pressure at 6.5 and then returns to fuel tank with #8. Also run the Aeromotive controller which cuts down the voltage to pump below 1500 rpm or so. Has been trouble free.

12AN availble? My aeromotive is size 10AN.

I am 12AN up the to pump and 10AN from the pump to the regulator. In a worse case scenario, would you anyone run no filter before the pump to keep flow high?

SX MAKES A HIGH FLOW WITH #12 INLET AND OUTLET #41003

Re: Fuel Pump Advice Needed:

To Let You Know Sx Has A New High Flow Filter #41003 That Is A #12 Inlet And Outlet Flows Up To 180 Gph . This Was Develpoed Just For The Long Suction Lines In Marine Applications. This Filter Will Not Starve The Fuel Pump.
