Or do I go with a walbro 400lph for around $170.00??????
You guys are all forgetting about the aeromotive A1000... It will support all of your setups without any problems. Just have to put a big enough feed into the tank for it to work. Or save a bit and get the sumped intank assembly that goes in the stock location and has all that stuff, including filter all built into the tank. 3 wire hookup, pos, neg, and fuel level connection with large AN fittings at the back of the tank for easy routing.

Actually, this is even better.............

and here is the tank and pump assembly at Jegs.

http://www.jegs.com/i/Aeromotive/027/18686/10002/-1

A1000 Stealth Kit
• Supports up to 1300 HP – naturally aspirated
• Supports up to 1000 HP – forced air induction

it may be expensive at $1157, but it is a system that will support pretty much anything you throw at the motor and those pumps last a long time. Just getting a used A1000 external is still $200+ most of the time.

It's been a year since someone else bumped it, but it's been 4 years since the OP last posted in this thread. And he hasn't logged into the site in 3-1/2 years, so I'm guessing your bump will be just as effective as ls7colorado's last year and aknovaman's the year before that.
