My TOTALLY rubber mounted Mallory Comp 140 is so loud now that I can't even hear the exhaust on my car anymore so I'm thinking it's on it's way out. So I started shopping Summit and there is lots of choices but is there a standout among the brands? Aeromotive, Holley black 150, Magnaflow, Mallory, Edelbrock 160 etc, etc....is there any to stay away from?

If you have a dead head system, then a pump that has a return line off the pump back to the tank like an A2000.... On a cheaper note, we have recently run the eddy 160 on two cars, and is alright. Don't know about longevity yet, we will see, but we are running 10's with it.

Currently the car runs a deadheaded 3/8" hard line isolated with short sections of hose at the connections to kill noise transmission. I have been considering going to a return system anyways and am not against going to a larger supply line if need be.

Way more than enough pump and you won't hear a thing when it is right. The return line needs to be at least as big as your supply line but that is all you need to do. I have #8 to the reg., #8 return to the cell and a couple of #6's to the float bowls.

If so you need to see a doctor about your hearing loss. I've been running a ProStar500 pump for 10 years now, and wouldn't buy anything else.

I don't hear mine either when the car is running with open headers, but throw on some quiet exhaust, and it's a different story. The Mallory 140 pump with a return regulator, is about the quietest elctric setup you will find. It's just a matter if it can keep up. My guess is with your current combo, yes it will.
