Default Ly6 with cam, enough fuel?
Hello. I am building a silverado 08. I'm putting an ly6 with ls3 intake and 42lb injectors as well as a hotter cam. I expect 500 hp. My question is, do you think the fuel system that's stock will be enough?

Last thing I want to do is lean it out.

If it is a flex fuel truck, you surely have enough pump. I think the stock flex fuel pump is 340 -360 lph. I am not sure on the non-flex fuel trucks.

Make sure you use really good springs to control the heavy solid intake valves. Swapping them out for LS3 IVs' would be a +
