Default 500+ hp motor plus 200shot what kind of fuel set up do i need

ive got a 12.8-1 383 pushing 500+hp and i want to put a 200shot on it. I have all stock fuel system in the car otherthan the 255pump. I was told i can run a Stand Alone System but my issue i have right now is Money. so if i can figure out away to keep this entire fuel system under $600 that would be ****.
another thing would be i just install a 2nd wahlbro pump if thats the case i only see right ups on 98+ cars i have a 97 t.a so how can i do that. and will i still need the bucket in my gas tank for the pump cuz i was told i need the bucket. if this does work just by using the twin pump how much power is it capable of

You should know by now that a 700HP motor requires alot more than a $600 fuel system.

You are above what a single pump can provide.
I offer a dual pump kit that will support over 1000rwhp.

Give me a call & I can set you up with everything you need for a complete fuel system.

Then you're gonna have a sub-par fuel system that won't be able to keep up. You gotta pay to play.

What about a racetronix in-tank and an inline high pressure fuel pump as well?

i have seen the inline pump with the 255 pump support 700 horsepowe before but i think the best way would be either a stand alone system or doin the dual pump in the tanks which can be done quite easily and will be very beneficial to the motor its not hard to make or install and for standalone you can make one for less than 500 bucks

twin intanks and a hot wire kit will get the job done

This will support over 1000HP as Lonnie mentioned.

The twin intaks we do is rather simple.

SS Y
2 pumps on the stock hanger ( tight )
hotwire kit which has a lead for the second pump

This is then ran through the stock feed and we have been over 900 rwhp in turbo cars w/ TH400's.

thats it very, if you dont want to use a y fitting you can use a t fitting then you can wire up and turn on when you want it to work, very cool and inexpensive

Run a seperate fuel system for the NOS, use the single intank to power the motor and get an HSW cell with a pump built into it to run your kit. You can wire it to come on when you put power to the noids, flip one switch to power your pump and NOS.

alright so that sounds simple. i have the hotwire kit on the way and a 255 from you. could i do this set up with the 255 and stock pump to support the extra hp? i should be right at the limit of the 255 on n2o so if i wired it up lik this with the 255 and stocker it should support the car with n2o correct? or do i need two 255s because the stock wont kep up with the 255?

those will both work the only thing is that the 255 pumps will support near 1000rwhp as for the stock pump and the 255 it might be near 850 but dont quote me on that number
