Internal vs. External pump I don't know too much about fueling but I think I will be building a fuel system from scratch. I am finishing up a low compression 346 long block that is going into a Jaguar XJ6. It will be turbocharged, and I expect to run all new fuel lines (probably stainless) and make my own fuel cell. My goal is about 700RWHP. It will be a street car so a reliable and quiet pump(s) is a must.
Would I be better off going with an internal or external pump? Any pros and cons between the two?

That's a thought, but I would rather use one big pump... my idea is that the simpler your system is, the less parts there are to break, and the more reliable it will be.
Are in-tanks always more quiet though? On my setup, and intank would be in the fuel tank, in the trunk. An external would probably be under the car.
