Default Stock Fuel Pump Limits

I plan to run 8psi with 42lbs injectors. I currently have a cam and heads in the car. The question is, will the stock fuel pump hold?????

With enough pump you'll make it just fine.

You might consider tuning your system for lower than stock pressure first before adjusting for boost.
Keep in mind your pumps volume capacity is increased at lower fuel pressure.
Another way to up the volume from a pump is to increase the voltage.
