So I purchased a used turbo kit i plan on installing in my 2002 camaro on a 5.3 motor. Who has the best deal on dual fuel pumps and fuel lines? I was told it needs to ALL be changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Walbro 255 seem to be most reasonable priced pumps upto the task, racetronics has good prices and wealth of Knowledge, fragola push lock hose is reasonably priced and durable, got mine from summit.

I'd suggest Lonnies, I spoke to him briefly on this subject and he indicated that with his dual 255 setup on a Hobbs switch, that the stock lines and rails would support 700rwhp.

255s are old news and outdated, get a pair of e85 compatible 450s on ebay for $120 each.

A single 450 can support nearly what two 255s can push.

JoeNova

A pair of 450s is overkill. One 450 will get you 900whp or so. I would suggest just going this route.

If you want gas, a pair of 255s is good for 1000whp with reasonable fuel pressure. They're cheap. With E85, run a pair of AEM 320 lph E85 pumps, they're $120 each.

Stock lines are good to 700whp or so. Again, depends on fuel pressure, regulator used, whether or not it has a return, etc

not a fan of dual pumps at all, there are so many affordable single pumps that will meet or exceed goals

we have made over 800whp thru an auto on a single 400-450 pump for 99-130 dollars shipped with install kit...

camaro75racer did not state his HP goals or the reasons for wanting a DP system. This is something we will review with camaro75racer in detail and make a recommendation at that point.

For the moment im just wanting things up and running with a 5.3 but around the end of this year i will be pulling it for a Thompson 408 iron block with LS3 top end. This year is just learning before i start pushing things but i would like 900ish to the wheels with the 408.

You would require a fuel system which can support 1,100 FWHP at a base pressure of 58PSI and BSFC of apx. 0.65. Factor in a safety margin and you are looking at a twin 340LPH system with proper Teflon lines, regulator and rails.

I was looking at the pumps with that kit, how much does e85 reduce the life expectancy?

Racetronix

It is not the E85 itself which is the issue. It is the moisture in the fuel system. Alcohol is a magnet for moisture and many older cars do not have fuel systems which seal well. If you keep the moisture out of your fuel system and put much higher concentrations of gas in your tank during long periods of storage it will go a long way to extending the life of the pumps as well as many other fuel system components. No rubber hose. Always use Teflon conductive hose.

Does the factory fuel line that runs from the fuel tank all the way up to the engine bay need to be replaced?

1,200 RWHP.

Also, can 93 octane pump gas be used also....in a full time E85 fuel set-up...?

So for someone that will run pump 91 a majority of the time with e85 mixed in here and there it won't be a big deal?

Lines are Fragola PTFE hose as well. How much power will these pumps support on straight e85?
