fuel pump recommendation Putting together ls1 with s475 turbo, blowthrough e85 carb,custom grind turbo cam from Martin@tick performance. Ive done a little math and using a ratio of .85 lb/hr bsfc for e85 and an estimate of 650hp i will need a pump that flows 550-600 lb/hr. The next calculation i did was amount of pressure needed. Took my base pressure of around 7psi+boost pressure 15psi+line loss of 5psi= 27psi give or take a few psi. I will be running a return style regulator with -10 feed from cell and -8 return. The pump curve for the A1000 looks like it will work well, also looked at holley dominator and thought it woukd cut the mustard. Any insight or personal experience would be greatly appreciated.
