Fuel? Max hp with Walbro 255lph?

Some fueling questions?

How much HP will the Walbro HP 255lph pump supply?

The fuel lines, how much flow/hp will they take?

Car is a TA-89

Engine 415 with procharger...........

Re: Fuel? Max hp with Walbro 255lph?

I know when I spoke to Racetronix about one of their LT1 fuel pump hotwire kits, with the High pressure 255LPH pump they supply and wiring kit, they say 550hp and with the optional volt booster 650hp. Don't know if this helps you or not. Typically forced induction cars require more pump especially if you are running an FMU because the pump can't flow as much fuel volume at the increased pressures.

Will not use FMU next year and will hopefully get 600-700rwhp. So i guess I need to upgrade my fuel system....

Any good recommendations of needed upgrades?

I made over 700rwhp (M6) with a 255lph intank, Kenne Bell "Boost-a-Pump", stock lines and regulator.
