I have bought one of those years ago from Mancini and they tell you to buy the special eccentric, which has some special coating on it I guess. Not even sure it's needed or if the HD eccentric is still an available MP item? I just threw that out there so you could research it just to make sure....

S&S used to make one. But you have to use a regulator with it.

There's one at summit that seems it will supply the fuel I believe I need. On the tab that says "required parts" and the eccentric isn't on there. I don't know if that means I need it or not lol

Do you think I would be limited in my application? According to flow to hp chart ; I would need about 65gph for 600 hp and some of these mechanical pumps are well over that. I'm not ruling out using an electric pump but I also don't believe in doing a bunch of unnecessary stuff
