I will begin work on this once the staged VHR fuel systems are completed in the next couple weeks. It will be good timing since that is when the Road Race Pumps will be going into the CNC. We will start from the bottom, working our way up... and the changes for what I will now refer to as the "standalone road race pump" will all take place at the top. I dont think it will be very difficult for me to develop the conversion, but I have my concerns about testing. Basically, it will need testing before I trust it. This would be best done in a non-turbo or non-supercharger car.. that way if there are any problems that cause a pressure drop, there is no risk of engine damage like there is in a boosted car. I think that testing might work best if I make the conversion parts and send them to an existing user of our road race pump with a non-boosted car who is interested in switching to this setup. They could leave all the in-tank hoses in there and everything so that if there is a problem with the new setup, its not a big chore to go back to the proven setup.

I think about this standalone version every night, and I fully intend to see it through. I dont know that I can make it exist before dead of winter or beginning of spring.
