A Guide To GZ Motorsports Vacuum Pumps

Your race car doesn’t operate at its best without the proper vacuum, so getting the best pump for your application is key. Whether you’re looking for a pump with a high CFM capacity, one that can be used with limited blow by volume, or just a pump that will suit the demands of your engine, GZ Motorsports has you covered. With their complete line of vacuum pumps, kits and accessories, you’ll have your race car tearing up the track in no time.

The first pump that GZ Motorsports offers comes from their Sportsman line. This pump, the V100 Sportsman Budget pump, is perfect for those engines smaller than 400 cubic inches. Built to be a long-lasting vacuum pump, the Sportsman Budget pump will help those individuals looking to limit the overall vacuum to 10 to 12 inches of vacuum or those individuals running naturally aspirated engines with limited blow by volume. With carbon fiber vanes and Rulon wipers, you get the perfect seal, which means less operating costs associated with your race car.

This pump comes #10 AN blue anodized aluminum fittings on the side inlet port and rear outlet port for easy connection to your vacuum lines. Quality tested, this pump will make 19cfm at 4,900rpm and won’t break the bank at $249.

GZ Motorsports offers two variations of their regular Sportsman vacuum pump to fit your needs.

If you’re looking for something a bit heftier, GZ Motorsports offers two other Sportsman pumps. Both pumps feature carbon fiber vanes and Rulon wipers for a better seal. Oil mist passing through these pumps means a longer life and no cleaning requirement before you race mean these pumps will save you time and effort on your race trips. At just 6lbs, these pumps pack quite a punch, delivering 19 to 22 inches of vacuum and make 22cfm.

Complete with #10 blue anodized Fragola Aluminum fittings, you can choose from the VP101A pump with the inlet on the side and outlet on the back of the pump, or the VP102 pump with the inlet and outlet both on the side of the pump for just $299 each. Both these pumps are recommended by GZ Motorsports for smaller engines with low power adder outputs, while the VP 101A pump is recommended for larger cubic inch small blocks with power adders reaching near the 600hp mark, with the pump speed needing to be increased for engines pushing toward the 750hp mark.

The last pump that GZ Motorsports offers is the daddy of them all-the Super Pro vacuum pump. With a newly designed polished aluminum case, this pump features carbon fiber vanes with extra tough Rulon wipers for that perfect seal. Just like the other pumps GZ Motorsports offers, the Super Pro pump has oil mist passing through it and there are no cleaning requirements associated with this pump. At 6.5lbs, this is the largest and most potent vacuum pump offered by GZ Motorsports, delivering 24 inches of vacuum and producing 33cfm at 5,090rpm.

Both the inlet and outlet are on the side of this pump and come complete with #12 AN anodized aluminum fittings. GZ Motorsports recommends the Super Pro pump for engines producing about 750hp or more. This pump can be yours for jut $419.

All the vacuum pumps that GZ Motorsports offer are sold separately from the pulley and brackets but can be bought in complete kits for convenience and money savings. GZ Motorsports prides themselves on the fact that their pumps are lighter, generate a higher vacuum, and are more reliable than other pumps on the market, so you know you’re getting the very best product when you choose GZ Motorsports for your race car needs.
