Default Dual pump or single pump for turbo build

Hey I'm in the process of building a single turbo s/s 275 1/8 mile racing 3rd gen camaro capable of 1500hp max. I plan on running e85 and I want to know what fuel pump(s) guys are running. I strongly prefer to run an in-tank pump. Any suggestions?

you should post this in the forced induction section, probably get more response there.

1500 hp on E85 is a bunch of fuel, triple in tank Walbro 450 maybe?

Not a hope of any single electric pump doing that on E85.

Is this a genuine goal, or just a dream ?

Because for "cheap" pumps, you'd nearly by into 4 needed, for more expensive pumps a pair could probably do.

As to how easy they might be to get in tank, is another matter...although presumably you wouldnt be using a stoock tank anyway ?

No I'm not using a stock tank. I want to set up for 1500hp so I can have room to grow. That's my max. I would hate to build this thing and run out of pump. The fuel system is going to be built right the first time

Simplicity, cost....triple 450 Walbro....and a voltage booster if you need a bit more

Spending more and you could buy a couple of big brushless pumps, but they're a bloody fortune.

For the 450's make sure you've a good electrical system to supply them
