The Aeromotive 11182 Pro-Series 5.0 GPM Brushless Gear Pump represents the pinnacle of electric fuel pump technology, delivering the highest flow rate available on the market today. This external inline fuel pump features an advanced brushless motor paired with an integral spur-gear pumping mechanism, producing 5.0 gallons per minute at 13.5V and 40 PSI—enough to support up to 3,400 flywheel horsepower on naturally aspirated fuel-injected engines or up to 2,700 FWHP on forced induction carbureted applications.
Key Performance Specifications:
- EFI flow rating: 1,700 lbs/hr at 40 PSI, 13.5 volts
- Carburetor flow rating: 1,850 lbs/hr at 9 PSI, 13.5 volts
- Continuous operating pressure: 90 PSI
- Peak pressure capability: 150 PSI (base plus boost)
- ORB-12 inlet and ORB-10 outlet ports (-12 AN and -10 AN fittings)
- Operating voltage: 12-16 VDC (straight power supply required)
Advanced Brushless Technology:
The brushless motor design utilizes sensors to monitor rotor angle for faster, more reliable phase shifting compared to traditional brush-style pumps. This results in superior torque capacity, improved motor efficiency, reduced current draw, lower operating temperatures, and significantly extended service life. The tight tolerances and precise speed control maintain consistent pump RPM as pressure rises, producing a flatter flow curve for optimal fuel delivery across the entire operating range.
Features and Benefits:
- Integral external brushless controller for clean installation and enhanced reliability
- Inline flow-through design with contoured port machining
- No shaft seals for improved reliability
- Low amp draw with excellent heat dissipation
- Lighter than traditional external mount pumps
- Extended service life in methanol and ethanol fuels
- Fully submersible for custom in-tank installations
Important Compatibility Notes:
This pump requires a straight 12-16 VDC power supply and is not compatible with pulse-width modulated systems, fuel pump speed controllers, or 16V charging systems (voltage regulator required for 16-18V systems). For EFI applications, use with Aeromotive regulator P/N 13134 or 13110. For carbureted applications, use regulator P/N 13202 or 13212.
Emissions Compliance:
This product is not legal for sale or use on emission-controlled vehicles except when used as a direct replacement part matching OEM specifications. Suitable for pre-pollution controlled vehicles and racing applications.
