Pierburg fuel pump

[james accordino]

Thanks Ron.  I saw your answer.  I read my posts
chronologically.  From first to most recent.  Missed
too much good stuff going the other way.  I did check
their site.  You're right, not too informative.
That's O.K.  They might be new to the web game.  Put
in a used GERMAN Bosch pump I had.  Nicknamed "shiny".
 1k miles so far this week.  Really quiet and no more
performance problems.  I had a pump from my 85 5kt and
my 89 200qt and their is no difference other than
Bosch and Audi p/n's.  I'm sure that the collar
supplied with the Pierburg works fine.  I also looked
at Holley in-tank pumps.  Super high flow pump (255
liters per hr.) good to 800 HP for a 5.7L Camaro or
Firebird for $185.34.  Has a hugh poly sock for a
filter at the base.  Would need a custom collar to
hold it in the mount, but I don't think this would be
a problem.  Also splicing of the 2 wires.  Just
something I looked into following the Czech debacle.

Thanks
Jim Accordino
