Magnafuel Prostar 500. I have run the same pump on both gas and alky plus 16V without any issues

Aeromotive. I won't run a magnafuel on a lawnmower. I have their A3000 and modular regulators on my car now for my nitrous system. Ran it when I was on gas too. Far superior pump to magnafuel. I'd also consider weldon, but not sure if they are alky compatable or not. There is also Product engineering, but they are pretty much a magnafuel copy.

Several good recommendations. I bought a Product Engineering setup to update the car. Very nice stuff, call them you won't be sorry.

Currently have an Aeromotive A2000 but can't seem to get them to last anymore. Been looking at the Product Engineering ones.

Belt drive and dont look back. My three door cars have rear cells and belt drive pumps. My fastest goes low 5.80s and 9.10s.

X2 on the belt drive, about the same cost these days for good electric and way more reliable. I'd stay on gas if electric pump was the only choice.

6 valve, 130 GPH, 12+ p.s.i.

Never blows fuses, belt doesn't break, can't forget to turn it on. Wink

How much power is that good for with a rear mounted cell?

They were good for about 850 HP in Winston Cup cars...
I'm running a Holley street/strip, no regulator, at about 550 HP.
My rear mount cell gravity feeds like a mo-fo through 1/2" aluminum / -8 line lines.

Maybe 550hp on alky then?

Big pump history from an OG.
Product Engineering was the originator sometime in the 80s.
Barry Grant got the rights or just flat copied it.
Magnafuel came about sometime in the 90s.
FWIW Product Engineering is still the best source for seals and such.

EDIT: Remembered that Magnafuel actually started in the 80s under another name. Magnaflow?
