Default LS1 swap into Jeep TJ........Need more fuel Pressure?????

I finely bought a LS1 with 4L60E out of a 2001 TransAm and the first question of MANY to come is............What do I do about the lack of fuel pressure comming from my 49psi POS stock fuel pump? I belive I need a minimum of 53-54 psi.

Q2: Can I retrofit the fuel pump from the TransAm into the 19 gallon plastic tank from the 1998 Jeep TJ? If so that would solve alot of things.


Thanks to all
Steve

Either use the F body pump, or get an upgraded Walbro pump. I got a Walbro 255L/hour pump that was a bolt in for my RX7. I bet you can do the same.
