Read the entire instruction manual before beginning installation. Some stock parts will be

used in reassembly.

When referencing the side of the vehicle, the driver side of the vehicle is considered the left

side and the passenger side of the vehicle is considered the right side of the vehicle.

This high flow fuel pump module fits 1997 to 2003 model year Chevrolet Corvettes. During the 2003

model year GM made a change to the Corvette fuel system. This module will not fit the later 2003

vehicles. The 2003 model year C5 fuel system change over occurred on November 25, 2002. If your

car was built on or after this day, you have the newer fuel system and this module will not work in

your vehicle. If your car is a 2003 model year car and the last six (6) digits of your VIN are 114930 or

higher, you have the newer fuel system and this module will not fit your vehicle. Look at page 3 of the

instructions for a picture of the 1997 to early 2003 model year fuel tank design (as seen from under

the vehicle). If you have the newer 2003 fuel system, contact LPE for other high flow fuel pump op-

tions.

Refer to table 1 on page 11 for fuel pump module flow data.

CAUTION: Before servicing any electrical component, the ignition key must be in the OFF or LOCK

position and all electrical loads must be OFF, unless instructed otherwise in these procedures.

If a tool or equipment could easily come in contact with a live exposed electrical terminal, also

disconnect the negative battery cable. Failure to follow these precautions could result in personal

injury and/or damage to the vehicle or it’s components.

WARNING: Before attempting installation of the new fuel pump module, ensure that the fuel tank is

less than 1/8th full by checking the fuel level gauge. Even though the gauge may read empty, some

residual fuel will be present in the tank. Exercise extreme caution and common sense when working

around gasoline. Extinguish all open flame or other sources of ignition and be sure to perform the

following steps in an area with adequate ventilation. Personal protection in the form of safety glasses

and fuel resistant gloves is strongly recommended.
