    Excellent advice as always. Thanks guys.

    Going with the AEM 320 pump which should be plenty for my needs ... unless you guys throw up some red flag about it ?

    Can I suggest the Radium Venturi pump to be added with it! When doing these pump upgrades, you make the factory jet pump essentially useless. Very simple install. I just did it to the Tundra. It creates a syphon effect to pull in fuel from outside the pump basket to inside it.

    8 years later and lord knows how many thousands of miles on the AEM 320. I am INCREDIBLY satisfied with it's longevity and build quality. You have my blessing to run it for sure.

    Might have to look into this since I'm going to turbo my truck.

    Aem 320 is a good pump. I'm switching to a walbro 525 in the Tacoma and reinstalling the aem to my 4runner

    It especially helps if you're doing WOT pulls with lower levels of gas

    I think this can be attached to the holley hydromat to increase its effectiveness. In theory anyway.

    Kinda depends on the tank and how the bottom is shaped. Not sure I could fit one in the Tundra tank. Definitely on flat aftermarket tanks

    Worth the question to reach out here then..
    Topic for the day, Has anyone done any work on tacoma valves? Adjustments, Replacements? My exhaust guy and I are trouble shooting an angry noise/rattle on my truck. I know he knows his job well enough to ask the question here. He has duplicated my system on other Tacomas without any issues. I have done the rear cat delete and added a resonator(typo) to help with back pressure and overall sanity noise. No leaks in any of the pipe, gaskets are all in place. Headers seem normal, normal Taco tick. We pull a Stethoscope out and gave the entire systema listen and without know the proper valve lable/number, the front driver valve is noisy as hell compares to the rest.
    Question is how difficult is it to do an adjustment or even replace parts? I'll do my own diligent research, but figured id ask the crowd? Thoughs comments? Thanks

    Cams come out to adjust valves. To replace a valve or do any kind of work on the seat, heads off.
