I've talked to people that said they are WAY quieter than the Holley Blue pumps. This guy had a Blue and did everything he could to quiet it down and finally replaced it with a Gerator and loved it!

The next step on my Street Rod project is the electric fuel pump. I am looking at the Holley HP 150 gerotor pump. It is supposed to be quieter than a rotary vane pump. I hate electric fuel pump noise so quiet is good. Has anyone used one of these pumps and are they quiet? Any other issues? I am running a 392 Hemi with 1 600 CFM Carter Thunder Series 4 BBL, street only(for now).
Thanks
Arno
I'd think with that carb a good mechanical should do the trick. It can't move enough gas to justify an electric.  Once you get a real carb on that thing you might want to look into an electric unit.

Grab a simple inline stock style EFI fuel pump. They will out flow the Holley pumps and are quiet.
As for the Carter, it can easily outflow a stock style fuel pump. I know my old 750 AFB was capable of doing that.
Carter bashers are no different than Holley bashers. They just stick their closed minded heads in different orifices.
not bashing the carter. I wouldn't run an electric pump unless the car was going to run 11.60's or better. And no need to run one on a 600 cfm carb, no matter the brand. He'd even be ok w/ a 750DP and a mech pump. but that's just my opinion. I've been doing this junk for a while and I've never had a rod or mech pump go bad yet. Your old 750 AFB probably sucked those tiny fuel bowls dry, if ya had a holley you would have been ok..lol

Thanks for all the replies and to those that gave  to my car. OK, The main reason I am going with an electric pump is at some point I plan on using a more exotic induction. I want to get the car dialed in first and then upgrade. I am not sure what it will be at this point but could be 2x4bbls or as many as 6x2bbls. I was looking at the Holley gerotor but now will check out other brands as well. Thanks again for the input. Arno
