So i bought a 05+ bucket off ebay.

took it apart, got rid of all the unnecessary stuff.



plan on zip tieing the pump in place here




Using this as my return


as for my feed ive seen a few guys run a 90' fitting threw the hate to a hose barb so i think i will do the same.

my questons is do i need the sock in or out of the bucket, i see most guys run it outside and some inside so any input would be good.

next queston how are you guys wiring the pumps up inside the bucket i plan to get a hotwire kit but still arent 100% on hooking it up.

ill post more pics once my fittings get here

 

Here is my hat, -8 Feed and factory feed as return.

 

I dont see anything.

 

trying to do this on my phone, but here is my fittings.

 

04 up bucket already has the upgraded 30 amp electrical bulkhead, I ended up making my own in tank harness that's plug and play for the walbro 450. I used OEM feed as my return and ran a new -8 feed with a big fuelab filter inline.

 

Looks like you have the same fittings.. so I should be able to just splice the factory grey and black wires into the walbro harness and not do a hot wire kit?

 

I would still suggest a hotwire kit, this provides a better power source to tank. As for the intank, I would not use any factory wiring as the 400 will have too high of a current draw. You need to upgrade all the wiring basically. Racetronix makes a plug and play hotwire kit for that bucket assembly, I may have a part number somewhere but its been awhile since I installed mine. I would base the wiring off of a good 30 amp draw to be safe. How is the 400 wired? Do you have a pic of the pump?

 

Here's what my pump looks like same connector

I made a thread a couple years ago about doing dual walbro400s in a returnless bucket. You will probably find it useful. I ran 10ga wires straight to rhe pumps.

 

I looked at it last night, gave me some more ideas. But where did you run your wires after they was out of the tank? did you make a bulkhead and hook it into the harness or what?
