You gotta pay to play, going fast costs money. No sense in penny pinching once it's done it's done and you've got grow room cause once you go past your original plans, which always happens, you'll be glad the lines see done and ready to take on 1100+ hp. And if you own a lowered fbody like myself you already hate getting under the damn thing. Just my 2 cents tho. $600 is just some walking around money in the horsepower game

Personally I've had only 1 hobbs switch malfunction reported out of over 2000+ kits sold.
I've seen way more pump problems related to overheating (due to either high pressure operation or fuel temperature) than anything. I get a significant number of calls stating "my car acts up after xx minutes of driving, can you help me fix this?"
The biggest problem is with the second pump coming on & overloading the fuel system causing a pressure spike. This is a result of the second pump coming on too early in relation to demand vs. the fuel system return capacity. With an aftermarket fuel system it is much less of a problem, but still possible.
