Default fuel system help

i plan on spraying a 250 shot. im using a NITRO DAVES dual stage plate. first stage 100 shot, second stage another 150. what im worried about is , is that to much fuel to pull off the rails.i have the proffesional products intake with bigger rails, 42lb. injectors, and dual warlbros out back. is that a sufficent enough fuel system or will i need to look into a stand alone or just a smaller shot?

That all sounds good. I 'll let the pros answer this one, but it sounds like you might drain the rails and have a nice lean spike upon activating the kit. I'm spraying a 300 shot with the help of the FJO and a dedicated fuel cell.

Get it on a WB or a dyno to be sure and for ultimate safety. A motor (as I found out the hard way) is a lot more $$ than some logging/dyno time.

With everything you have into it Slink, get a FMFPR, it will help a TON keeping the pressure constant. The stock regulator in in the bucket and doesn't react well to quick big hits at the rail, but the frontmount reg will.

When we get into tuning we will just start small on both stages. Gotta crawl before we walk.

Yep, that's what I did, reg and return at the rails.

Im thinking the dual pumps should support enough. Deffintly start small and work your way up on the size shot. Having a fuel pressure gauge would deffintly be worth having.
