Default C6 Z06 Fuel System

Looking for deteails on the fuel system for the new Z06.
Injector size
Pump Type
etc.

Based on the HPE video, I see that it can support 700+ RWHP. Wondering what pump they used and if it may be a dualpump set up.
Anyone know?

Thanks

I would be very surprised if the stock zo6 fuel system can support 700 rwhp, safely that is. I've heard the injectors are 39 lb or so?

The car in the video had more fuel throughout the entire nitrous run, then it did at any time on the motor run. Obviously it being lean on motor has to do with it not being tuned yet, however the fact that it maintained richer numbers on the nitrous making 700+ hp tells me the fuel system can easily handle 700 rwhp once proper tuning becomes available for them.

How big are the lines, and what kind of fuel pump(s) do they have?

it was also a wet kit, so the injectors you can only really rate to about 550rwhp, because thats the best we've seen on the motor, but the fuel pimp and lines look to be good for some big power

Correct, that is why I want to know what its componets are. I need to do some fuel system upgrades so I am really interested in knowing the fuel pressure as well as volume of the system. Also, want to know how they achieved this. (Pump type, brand, etc)
