550 RWHP and a Walbro 340 pump.
#2
It is for me...I have a 382 stroker and 200 wet shot...I was just tuned very conservatively (fat) on a mustang dyno, got 580 rwhp and 644 rwtq..
Single Walboro 340
Hotwire kit
30 lb SVO injectors
GM MAF kit from NX
stock rails, lines, regulator...
I installed a Kenne Bell boost-a-pump, and found out that it was not needed (actually flooded the **** out of it even at 20%!). I left it on, but it is at zero...
I still have to lean out the fuel jet from 44 to 42, the stock jetting was too rich...should pick up a little power, clost to 600 rwhp on a mustang dyno (A4, converter unlocked, big wheels and tires).
I am happy it does feed it well....lots of $$$ and aggrivation to do a sumped tank, big external pump, big line, remount the FP regualtor, etc.

I'm running one & on the spray my car is probably putting down something in the Neighborhood of 550 rwhp.
Bad thing is that you have to do some modifying to get it to work right in an LS1 tank. If I had to do it all over again, I would spend the extra $100 & go with the Racetronix Plug & Play setup. In fact I have a buddy that is a Tech for gm & he told me that the next time he pulls a sending unit assembly out of an F-Body he's gonna give it to me & I'm gonna pull the Walbro & go with the Racetronix setup. The walbro gives me plenty of fuel, but with the racetronix setup you don't have to cut up the bucket that your pump goes in and you can hook up the little priming line, just like the stock pump.

Thanks Rob
Thanks Rob
A 340 pump would be marginal @ 550RWHP w/o an upgrade harness depending on your motor's BSFC. The upgrade harness would provide the extra headroom / safety margin you would require. Running w/o the fill bucket also has its issues. The details of its purpose are covered in our ad here:

Thanks for all the replies. I wish I wouldn't of bought this walbro already I would put in a racetronx. But I bought this before the racetronix system was even available. Unless you guys want to take it in on trade....
I'll watch the injector duty cycle once I get it setup.
