I would say no. It might work, but it's not enough flow considering a walbro 255 pumps 100 liters more per hour then that pump.

I mostly agree. It MAY be OK for a totally stock LS1, but even with that it is marginal.

Get a DW 200 (or bigger if you plan upgrades). They are quiet and about $90 on Amazon Prime.

Not sure what an E2000 is but I can tell you that every Walbro 255 I've had has been loud. That's why I swapped the one in my Cougar for a DW200. I have a video on YouTube to show the difference.
