MITUSA questions

[juddski88]

So I bought a MITUSA off a forum member last year but it wasnt a complete kit, just the pump and the pulleys and mounting bracket. I have emailed Opie and some others that I thought might know how to best contact him but have had no luck. so my question is, who should i contact to get the rest of the kit, or where should i start to look to piece it together myself? i could figure out the filter and lines and connections, but the belt and pressure regulator have me stumped.

thanks,
tim

The belt is Gates part # 300L050

I'm not sure on the regulator, I could look at it tomorrow when its light out though.

You should be able to find a adjustable fuel regulator through summit or jegs, I run mine at 20psi, the filter head is a perma cool 4 port head ( http://www.perma-cool.com/Catalog/Cat_page26.html ) one line from the pump, one line to the CP3, one return to the tank and one to a pressure gauge.

My set up came with the " fuel log" which is a check valve assembly if the belt ever broke you would still have some fuel, I've never broke a belt, ( remember the belt is cogged so you run it loose. Too tight and you will ruin the seal on the pump.

I can crawl around mine today and see if I find what the numbers are!! I think I still might have Opies installation instructions here to some where if you want them!! I just looked on the computer and I have all the diagrams and instructions Opie sent me for my Mitusa!!

thank you, I am going to try to not use so many fittings and I am not running through FICM or Stock filtration. Just need to find a source for a regulator. does this pump flow through without an external bypass?

Thanks,
Tim

thank you, it helps some....I didnt realize he dropped his prices or i would've bought a new one then. i paid the same as a new kit for just what i got, LOL. I guess i had it coming for getting so many good deals in the past year

You would probably have to wait 3-6 months for one

the one i bought has a home-made bracket for dual cp3's that i will be taking off. i don't see why you'd need a different kit, just a Y to feed both pumps. unless he thinks the small pump wont push enough fuel for 2 cp3's? in which case i'm screwed anyways with a modded pump

if you send him an email he will get back to you. good guy. i have never had a problem buying either of my kits from him.

for the small kit i told him my goals were 750. for the larger pump i told him my goals were 900 plus.

i might call Ultimate transmission tomorrow and see about ordering one. Opie mentioned in a dieselbombers thread he was moving his pump sales to them exclusively. I have emailed him a few times with no luck.

so the 3-15 psi is just the "idle" psi setting? and the boost psi keeps the diaphram closed after that? or would this need the same modification that the holley unit did that Shane described?
