Default What fuel system to support the superstrokers?

What are the MTI cars and others using to support 500 rwhp NA? Is the stock pump sufficient? What minimum injector size is required?

I used a Walbro intank, an NOS inline, and a Kenne Belle Boost-a-Pump.

Now I'm using an Aeromotive pump. It's rather large. Should support 2000 HP they tell me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Stock pumps are good for around 500 rwhp NA safely. I'd say 530 rwhp as a reasonable limit though.

I've got the Racetronix intank (plug-n-play) and SVO 30# injectors.
