no it's speed density, you should be able to get a chrome tube for it. i like 4.10's , the humming is normal, it's the fuel pump

Someone told me that when the humming gets loud (from the fuel pump) that means that the pump is going bad... true?

Yea, mine was always loud also and alot of people used to tell me that my pump was bad and I would always argue with them but they stuck by their word. I was supplying fuel just fine so I never checked it out. Thanks man.
