racetronix fuel system question
When I return from Iraq i will be upgading my fuel system for future projects with my car. in short, my car will be a stock head intake stroked LT1 with the PTK turbo kit.
My questions is will the racetronix kit (including wiring system)with the walbro pump and bigger injectors be ebough to support a 600-650rwhp car?
Or do i need fuel rails, bigger return/feed lines...
In th future when i seek to upgrade would one more walbrough pump spliced in to the system be enough to suffice?
Thanks for the info guys, i know i didn't supply alot of details but i really didn't see the need to when it comes to something simple like a fuel system.

edit: just found some more information about racetronix... i think that the dual walbrough setup would be great for my application, but i heard something about someone else having to do the work for you? Do i have to send my fuel tank out to some one to work on.. sounds like a really big hassle...

Jack? Are you out there? An answer from a supporting vendor @ racetronix would be nice on this and would probably sell me..hint hint..
Thanks

Tony I have Jacks twin intank system, all I had to send out was the pickup not the whole tank. It is a lot more involved than adding an inline though you have to drop the tank I had diff and all suspension out when I installed mine so it wasn't to bad. I could see it being a lot tougher with that stuff in the way.

At 650-700RWHP depending on your operating pressure and BSFC a single system with a BAP may or may not just be on the edge.
A DP system would support 700RWHP+ w/factory lines.
Many people opt to have -8 feed and -6 return fittings placed on the DP system so that they can run Teflon lines which will improve the flow.

Re: racetronix fuel system question
Do you still offer a dual in-tank walbro setup for f bodies? Or can you make one if someone sends in the sending unit off the car. What kind of prices on that setup.. thanks

Re: racetronix fuel system question
About taking out the pickup in the fueltank..my fuel experience on cars is limited,the extent of my fuel worries on old cars was a hose that went into a metal gas tank and a suction type mechanical fuel pump. I am not even familiar on how a pickup system works or mush less how hard it is to take one out of my car. Any sort of quick description would be helpful please.
Trying to learn everything i can about my fuel system before i leave iraq to go home and start the project.
thanks again guys.

Racetronix people are A+++++ not only did they try to fix my stuff... they didn't overcharge me for anything that was extra...
Thanks people... you will always have my business...
I sure hope this setup can support 800rwhp.
