Fuel needs in low boost application? Im reinstalling my rear mount and i need to sort out the fuel setup.
This setup has never seen over 5psi and as it stands there is a 3.5psi spring in there now.
Is my inline walbro 255 good enough with my 30lb injectors? Ive heard some say the stock pump/injectors will last for 5psi but i dont think ill rely on them. I also dont feel like messing with my tank again.
This is a daily driver with T60, makes under 385rwhp at 3.5psi and under 415rwhp at 5psi.

thanks, ill look into 42s. I figured 30 lb svo would be more around 34-36lb in an LS1 application but in an FI application i dont wanna skimp.
My IATs were pretty good with 3.5psi and no IC but the car was never pushed. Im building a dual fan setup mounted on my IC underneath (its in front of my radiator) to keep airflow to radiator but Im wondering how much attention i really need to spend on an IC for this application. Im guessing most are using an IC even at 5psi? even with a small T60?
