Default Aeromotive 11106 for LY6 turbo set up

Been looking at pumps for a turbo set up I'm doing in my 87 GN. Would this pump work rather then 2 walbro pumps? I'm only looking for 650 to 700HP, jegs says it will feed up to 900HP.

Thanks
Austin

It says it will support 500 hp in a forced induction application. You should probably go bigger on the pump.

LS1MCSS is correct. It will only support upto 500hp forced induction EFI. You will need to step up to the 11101 pump. Check out part # 17151 for a huge discount on all the hard parts to do an install. Good luck on your project.

I would recommend the dual walbros, in the tank if possible. Run one on a hobbs switch. This way you have only the fuel you need running. Using a big external pump tends to circulate the fuel through the rails, engine compartment, etc. This excessively heats the fuel, causing vapor lock,boiling the fuel,fun stuff.
Saves money on prefilters, lines, y's,etc when in the tank too.

Thanks for the help guys i was leaning toward the duals walbro pumps in the tank so it look like that is how I'm going to go. I'm going to have to look into the hobbs set up, to be honest i don't know anything about it.

Napa has the switch. Normally open pressure activated switch. Mine activates at 4 psi. Wire it as the trigger for the second pump relay. Some guys run a instrument bulb on the circuit to ease their mind on the pump turning on.
