My "quiet" Mallory 140 is pretty loud. The problem is that I have the pump mounted to the front of the trunk pan, and it is like a huge resonator.........

Get used to it, or upgrade to 3" exhaust
 . Seriously, even when rubber mounted, ALL vane-type pumps are loud.

yep, thats where i have mine mounted (i ll post a picture tomorrow) i fabbed up a bracket that hangs from the front of the floor pan right in front of the gas tank. i even insulated it with rubber gromets. i wonder what would happen if you hung it from a radiator hose. stick the top of the pump in the hose, clamp it with a hose clamp and attach the top half to a bracket from the front of the trunk pan.. so it will hang and dangle freely...........kind of like a...........well, never mind hhhhmmmmmm. i might give that a try because i think its the resonance that is bad, not so much the pump

Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
