OK, so i ran out to my garage and found the external fuel pump. here is what it says.

WALBRO
Made in USA
GSL394


looks to be a 190, and the website i was looking at said it was rated 400hp for boosted cars or 500 n/a
It's too small, get the GSL392, or an in-tank

Feel free to call me for more info.
You need to give Lonnie a call he is the best in the buisness and will not steer you wrong. My car made 486 rwhp and my single racetronics pump with the hot wire kit was not enough. Ive not had a problem since installing Lonnies twin pump system.

ill try him and see what he can do for me. I just figured there would be someone on here that was in the same situation, and ran an external 255 and worked out fine.
