Advice on fuel pump for turbo 5.3 Looking for advice on a couple of options for a 5.3 with a S475. Carb is a CSU 750 E85. Approx 700hp with a glide. 1st option is an in tank setup. Have not had much experience with this, so would like some suggestions. 2nd option is getting one of Nasty's sump tanks to replace stock one. I have a spare Aeromotive S/S pump as a back up for my Pro bracket car. Would need to get a boost reference regulator. Would like to add, that when we blow this engine, we have a high compression forged engine in the wings. Thanks

I would assume drag car? Street driven or raced around corners?
In tank pumps are great for minimal noise. If noise is not an issue external is easier to access. In tank pumps do typically come with some sort of fuel bucket which is good for corners or hard launches. If you are well baffled or run a fuel cell, go external.
The Aeromotive SS moves some flipping fuel. With at least 1/2 inch send and return line it will easily feed your motor. I'm having issues with one moving too much fuel for my 3/8 inch return line to swallow. Big *** pump

Yes, drag car only.
Does anyone have a Nasty Preformance f body dumped race tank they can review. Suppose to have a -12 feed line and a -10 return. That would give plenty of fuel for growing in the future.
What boost reference regulator would you recommend.
