Default H/C and spraying fuel pump question?

I need to upgrade my fuel pump and I need some help deciding what to go with. The car made 431 RWHP on the motor and 547 RWHP on a TNT (wet kit) 100 shot. I want a pump that can handle 700 RWHP (bigger plans down the road, DP ). I've heard of plug-play units out there but don't know who makes them or where to get them. The motor leans out a little now with the 100 pills not real bad but enough to concern me. I want to be able to run the 150 pills a few passes just for a timeslip and then eventually upgrade to a DP system Any advice would be much appreciated.

Check with Racetronix. They are supposed to be coming out with a plug and play unit for the 99 and up cars soon. I think ARE sells the pumps as well. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I guess everyone is running stock fuel pumps! Either that or I don't have enough posts on this board to get a question answered. Cmon guys I don't need a page long post just tell me what kind of pump, if you like it, and who sells it?

I run a T-Rex in-line fuel pump and 30lb injectors with my set-up. I have no problems at all! You can see in my sig with safe tuning what I pulled. I love it! On stock Bottom <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I could raise the timing and lean her alittle and get 600rwhp out her. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Thanks for the reply guys. After doing some research I think I am going with a 340 Walboro pump. I just hope it doesn't require to much modding.

35th ss - Did you have any problems with the install?

I think you'll be real happy with the 340 pump and hotwire kit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

hey doc no problem with the install.youll need to changed the connectors from the stock lead and ground wire to connect to the walbro.might need to use a clamp to secure it back to the plastic piece that holds the pump.good luck. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Thanks for the response. I thought that I heard that there was some modification necessary for that pump. Will post later on the results.
