Are there any plug and play pumps out there for V1. Can't find any.. Need a pump that can support 1400 crank on e85

not that i know of, there are a few running a dual fuel pump mod. there is a thread around here somewhere. the fuel set up is the second biggest hurdle when you get past the driveline.

I think that's about as close as you're going to get for a fit. The V1 platform doesn't command much for big power builds. Aren't our tanks very similar to the V2?

The v2 tank fits in the v1 cradle

OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE ASKIN THE WRONG QUESTION.

If you truely have 1400 at the crank, you would have done your homework and created a fuel system to supply the needed fuel, if you are just trolling, then you are wasting everyones time here.

Talk with the ppl who built your engine, or Racetronix.

Either way, there is no plug and play, it has to be pretty much custom.

If he wants to cheat he can get the new holley 59.5 fuel regulator and run a pump setup that will cover the necessary flow and plumb in new larger fuel lines...

Right, which is almost anything with these cars, just out of curiosity, how much power can the stock fuel system handle?

Parts changed as my friends have upped there game... Instead of competing with a Ecs 2010 Camaro, 427 c5 with a 250, and cammed SS on nitrous... The camaro is going twin turbo with a build short block... The better is getting a procharger and the SS is going meth with LSa set up. I have a aeromotive 13110 regulator, aeromotive eliminator fuel pump with the driver for it, and deachwerk 95lb ls2 injectors. Plan was 800rwhp with single turbo... I have twin 6665 turbonetics turbos that are being fabricated... Twin turbosmart 45mm Hypergates single 50mm Bov also turbosmart. Will be adding meth on the car as well. Car already has the CS 8.8. Fully built t56. Forged ly6 k1 crank Callies rods wiseco pistons. Arp bolts for the entire motor. Has a dm main girdle.

I'm shy on the fuel as I found E85 won't be hard to add. Could do 800rwhp on 93 and meth maybe... 9.9 to1 compression.

plug and play for 1400 using e85 is just not gonna happen using the stock hat. Even with duel/triple pumps... you'll need something like an intank a1000 type pump with a custom billet hat etc.

if you're really needing that sort of flow and volume then think about a 340 in tank using the stock hat and running it to a surge tank then use the baddest gravity fed pump to supply the engine. E85 is rough because of the volume needed vs pump gas

The Aeromotive A1000 flows 127.5 gph at 60 psi at 13.5 VDC whereas a single Walbro 39/50 pump flows 100 gph under the same conditions. The highest-end power Aeromotive pump (Pro Series) flows 204 gph. In highly restrictive systems, the Walbro flows slightly better than the Aeromotive Pro Series. I would never run an Aeromotive pump unless I needed something in series to overcome static head.

Those wont work for a V1. We had talked to them a while back regarding this and fitment sizes are incorrect for any possible means.

hence my saying "a1000 (type) pump in conjunction with a surge tank".
