Just a quick question to you guys who are running big power engines (talking 800bhp+) - what do you guys do about fuel pumps and fuel line size? Specifically from the tank(s) to the pumps? I assume people have used the standard tanks with -6 lines, but will be interested to see what you guys have done.

I'm using the same configuration as the previous engine owner raced it on his Stealth.
JIC8 lines from tanks to LPP --->surge tank.
JIC8 lines from surge tank to HPP's .
JIC6 lines from HPP's to each injector rail.

Using the car just for trackdays but everything goes fine at the moment.

Cheers,
Javier

Hi Javier,

Thanks for the info. What power are you running and how many LP's and HP's do you have?

Hi Johnny,
Holley 12-815 140gph LPP (7psi)
2x Bosch FP200 HPP
The engine was completely rebuilt after 2010 season and tuned to a more "relaxed" spec. It was dynoed to 634hp (700hp when racing into the Stealth)
Enought power for my habilities.
Cheers,
