Default Dual Walbro pump, heat issues, failure?

Has anyone clamped two walbro pumps together and had failure due to heat, or low fuel? I have C5 with 768 RWHP and can't keep pressure at the right level under boost. Help!

There should not be a problem unless they are run dry. Trying to not run the tank under 1/4 helps prevent this. I have not had any failure complaints.

Currently doing testing on a C5 kit to find the power limits. Your power level will not be a problem with my twin setup.

Please let me know if I can be of assistance.

Running them both at the same time can cause heat issues as well. Also your fuel line size and setup can play a big part.
