Default Fuel pump recommendations

What would you recommend for a fuel pump for this setup going on a 2002 TA WS6:

ATI D1SC 8#
42# injectors
NGK TR6 plugs
Spec stage 3 clutch
BMR SFC
BMR control arms

A walbro 340 inline? How goods is the ATI recommended 4GK101-001 Inline fuel pump ? T-Rex? I heard that the FMU that comes with the P-1SC was junk. What about the Racetronix fuel system by speed demon motorsports? I want a product that would not fail but that doesnt mean I want the most expensive one either.

Please let me know what you think. I want it to be able to support 600 hp just to be safe.

how good are the 42# injectors? would I need those or would the 38# injectors work fine for 600hp?

all responses are highly appreciated.

You need to do an in tank Walbro GSS340. You can not pull anymore fuel through the stock pump with a inline. It will keep the pressure up better but you will get no more volume than the stocker is worth. Racetronics is a good piece but not available yet. They also use a GSS340. Go with the 42# injectors it will be easier to tune and it never hurts to go over for a boosted motor.
We can set you up with what you want. And your setup would work good with our Billet High Flow Fuel Rails.

If you are set on an in-line pump you should consider the Walbro GSL392 as it has the highest output of all the in-line pumps of its type. (More than the Airtex T-Rex).

Racetronix has a kit incorporating The GSL392 and a weatherproof harness. This harness can be special ordered to plug directly into the factory F-LS1 harness (PnP) for the power trigger.

If you are going to spend the $ in the first place, do it right.....I ran into a few issues not taking care of my fuel system right off the bad, my injectors were maxing out and FP was dropping....

I'm running an inline 255, and an intank 255, 42.5LB injectors, CAS FP regulator, and hot wire hit...

I'm probably going to upgrade to twin 340's in the tank when I have a little more $ to spend...
