Features

  • Real closed-loop controlGrim measures fuel pressure continuously and corrects the pump's duty cycle to hold your target. Same core idea as Grim Max, sized for one smaller pump.
  • Everything in one boxThe power stage is built in, so there's no separate module to buy or wire. Pump, sensor, power and ground, and you're done.
  • Built for the pumps most hot rods runRated up to 10A: Holley Blue and Red, and the smaller Carter pumps.
  • Quiet pump, steady pressureRunning the pump only as hard as it needs to lowers noise and heat compared to running it flat out against the regulator all day.
  • Set up from your phoneConfigure it in the Veil app over Bluetooth. Settings live on the module.
  • Simple on purposeGrim does one job and does it well. If you need two pumps, a bigger pump, or the full feature set, that's what Grim Max is for.

About Grim

Most hot rods with an electric pump run it flat out all day and let the regulator dump the excess back. It works, but the pump is louder, hotter and working harder than it needs to, and pressure still wanders as conditions change.

Grim measures fuel pressure and runs the pump only as hard as it takes to hold your target. It's the same closed-loop approach as Grim Max, packed into one small all-in-one unit for the pumps most carbureted cars actually run.

In English and Scandinavian folklore, the church grim is the guardian of a churchyard, said to be the spirit of the first creature buried there, most often a black dog, set to watch over the ground. People who glimpsed it took it for an omen of death. It was standing watch the whole time.
