So I have a questions for the wizards in here. I have the pump off of an efi 92 suburban and have put a 525LPH hellcat pump on it. Currently it has -6an pieces on it and I was wondering if I should put the 6 to -10 and 6 to -8 fittings for feed and return. It has stock rails with SEP1000's on it and I plan on running 93 and some E85 (We only have one station). Will a -6an feed an return support 550-600 wheel reliably? There is a bunch of different stuff out there and it seems like stock stuff can rock it, how about for e85? I plan on driving it alot and don't want pump issues. Also what gauge wire should I go with? It has like 14 off of the pump, seems little. This will be the main setup for awhile, at some point ill put a custom tank in it with the big boy pump when I graduate the 5 teenagers and have the money to build a motor.

Pics of said pump.

Also wanted to share a picture of my buddies big tire C10 with a 88mm on a 5.3. Weird issue though we bought a 3 bar Delphi copy (there wasnt one that didnt look any less like it was from china) and when we logged it, the map was reading backwards. I have heard this is a mildly common problem, any one else ran into this? Additionally was looking at the 3 bar ZL1 map for his and the 3 bar EFI source for mine (I have the truck plug he has the Fbody map plug) any issues out there? Haven't heard much bad or good.

Actually made some progress! Well temporarily, so I put my cover with the drains on it and all is well but it seems like I am going to have to relocate the alternator and power steering or redo the inter cooler piping some. I think I can come off of the intake with a straight reducer and do a 90 which would bring it out a bit more. I say that because even relocating I might still have some interference. I may have to do both which would give me a bit more room for the driver side drain.
