Not Ranked
Bremillard,
Just the point I was going to add. The fuel column in the line has significant mass, especially if you've sized-up the line to gain flow capability. This is why you shouldn't run bigger than a #10 line in most cases. In fact #8 will usually work for a drag car just as well as a #10. My PSCA buddies often put the fuel tank in the front of the car just to prevent starvation due to acceleration loads.
Also, I think the pump makers lie...
