Why the Weldon pump is extremly quiet and durable for a street car? That would also be extremly hard to do you would need one way check valves to keep the fuel from running back to the tank on the hoses not being used.

The Weldon inline is a great pump but the flow curve isn't enough for my application. I need 500lbs/hr at 80 psi. Jim Craig thinks the 2015 will be close.

If the tank will hold the bucket it will be easy to do. Keep the stock lines,sending unit, etc to the stock filter and y block there with two check valves (Aeromotive -10AN) installed in the y. Then one -8AN line on to the rails, etc...use the stock supply line for a return.

2015 will be a little loud for daily driving.

What HP are you planning? I have several cars in the 900hp range on the 600A pump going 9.30 without issue. Our tanks do not use the stock sender too many problems getting it to work properly.

I'm planning on the largest size turbos that will fit my Incon kit. They flow 50lbs each ...so 1000 engine hp is the absolute max on a perfect day. Problem is I'm using a boost referenced tune. So I need to support 80psi...base + 20....that really limits the fuel pump selection....fuel curve on the 600A isn't close...at lower pressures it's a great pump that should support 900 engine hp. Probably more with a nitrous set-up. PurEVL is going to find it's limit soon.

Designing a perfect world, true street high pressure system isn't easy. Could run your tank with with twin 600A's...side by side...dual AN fittings on the tank...run one all the time and switch the other one.

Dual intank Walbros also flow what's needed, but there have been some failures that worry me...that's a lot of pressure and a tight plumbing package for two Walbros.
