Walbro 255l high pressure pump (I think the pn is GS340) should get you there.

Ya, they're plug-n-play setup would set you up pretty nice...Its a little more pricey, but it saves you the hassle in the long run..

Hi Kurt.

Get the Racetronix kit. I put mine in and I just fixed my gas gauge with a new sending unit.

No its not. The bucket in the tank causes trouble with just throwing in a pump. That's why the Racetronix kit is such a good way to go and why so many swear by it. I believe with LT1 F-bodies that its important putting your money in the right places and this is one of those places. Save hassle and aggrevation all for cheaper than a replacement stock pump and go Racetronix.

Get the harness too. Adding the harness alone to my car jumped my volts on the charging degree 1 whole volt. If you read on racetronix site it says increasing the voltage increases the fuel output.

Another vote for the Racetronix kit. Get the harness and the pump kit.

Full bolt-ons and cam and eventually a 125 shot of N20. I am not sure how much that is but I am going to say with nitrous its going to be around 500fwhp.
