Will my Racetronix fuel system support my new setup of 700 FWHP?

Basically, I want to know what's the safest, most reliable, lightest, etc. system to use on my drag only car that should make about 700 FWHP. I'll probably end up using 60 lb. injectors.

I can setup our fuel systems with lightweight hose and fittings. Give me a call I will help you work out your needs.

Sorry to bring this up again, but...

with forced induction setups such as supercharged or turbocharged, will put down more power to the wheels than a naturally aspirated setup. When manufacturers claim that their product will support 600 rwhp or 700 rwhp, its kind of a blurry number. I say that because with my setup, its not going to be a dyno queen. Big slicks, steel driveshaft, big gear, TH350, no lock up, big stall, etc. There's probably a 20% drivetrain loss there. That's why when I created this thread, I specified FWHP because 700 fwhp with a 20% drivetrain loss is like 560 rwhp.

Anyhow, basically I was wondering if I'd be safe adding the BAP or ditching the setup completely. If I ditch it, what should I go with. Dual pumps was my answer. Is there a particular/specific kit? Plug-n-play would be nice, just like my single Racetronix setup.

This will be a drag only car, pulling high 1.2s to low 1.3s in the 60 ft. and deep into the 9s. Thanks!

I can set you up with a double pump setup that is a direct plug & play.
I modify your sending unit & return it, wired, pressure tested & ready to install.

No cutting of wires or lines is needed.
Also no need for a BAP with this setup.

I can set the 2nd pump to run continuously for race only or I can configure it to activate off a separate toggle or even an rpm switch if desired.

Let me know & I'll be glad to help.

Give Lonnie a call-he's building a dual Walbro setup for my C5-he know's his stuff and know's what you need and don't need.

His kit is top-notched. I have one getting ready to go in my car.
