Post up your fuel system setups I would like a thread of fuel systems that people have put together for their projects. HP ratings, reliability, and of course the price range someone would be looking at.
post up your photos everyone likes photos
I put this together on a budget like the rest of my build, or at least choosing the best deal for the power capability.
I am almost positive this will be a perfect setup for me but would just like some input. I am going to be running a pretty straight forward LS1 with a holset hx-55 turbo 8psi, t-56 planning to be right around 550hp.
everything is from summit except the injectors and is an inline system
2 summit EFI pumps. 43gph@40psi = 86gph or 533lbs/hr and capable of 80psi
-8 feed
-6 return
all summit twist tight fittings capable of 250psi
pre filter and after pump filter
y block before the pumps after the pre filter
y block after the pumps before the filter
mallory 30-100 psi 1:1 boost regulator
LS1 fuel rail adaptor
Injectors- 60lb
system should be capable of close to 1000hp, less for the boosted applications. fuel system not including the injectors was about $550

My setup for 2500+ hp
From Tank:
-12 line to Aeromotive 100micron filter
-12 line from filter to Aeromotive Belt Drive Pump
-10 line from pump to Aeromotive 10micron filter
Magnaflow -10x-8x-8 Yfitting.
-8 lines from Yfitting to each fuel rail (edelbrock)
Billet Atomizer 225lb/hr low impedence fuel injectors
-8 lines from each rail to Aeromotive regulator (for belt drive pumps)
-10 line from regulator to tank.
very reliable, no worry about electric fuel pump
Probably 2500 dollars in this setup. Injectors alone were 1400.

Mine is as follows:
Fuel safe 15 gallon road race enduro cell, steel case with hard rubber bladder
Internal surge tank in cell with triple check valves
Single duck foot pickup in surge tank
Quick fill valve in tank with remote fender fill
Fuel sender in cell top
Roll over safety check valves
TFE hose on everything including vent
100 micron aeromotive filter pre pump
10 micron magnafuel after the pump
Single Bosch external 044 pump
All stainless hardline run under the car with Swagelok fittings
Nasty performance rails
Magnafuel regulator
60 lb seimen Deka injectors
Full box tubing crash cage around fuel cell
Price: stopped counting around $3500
This is a road race setup so most of the cost is in the cell itself.

fireball, i notice you have it setup as such
pump > y > rails > regulator
any particular reason? i was going to do this
pump > regulator > 2 lines , 1 to each rail from regulator , was debating on connecting the rear of the rails together... is that necessary or not? i assuming have each rail get its own line from the regulator (or pump) is a must as opposed to going pump > rail 1, > rail 2> regulator > return.
