Would this fuel pump setup work? NOS related
I have a holley intake(255) right now but was wondering if I could wire in a aeromotive inline pump aswell, and have it powered off my NOS swich inside the car. Just making sure this new motor gets enough fuel on the spray.
Basically the Aeromotive pump will only being running when I spray it. Hope this question dosen't sound stupid.

You can't put an inline pump in series with the in-tank pump, and then shut the inline pump off. Won't work. You have to run an inline pump all the time. For a wet system, its almost easier to set up a fuel cell, pump, lines, regulator to supply the fuel for the nitrous when spraying. Then you can wire the extra pump to only come on when the nitrous is armed.
If you want to use the inline pump, it will increase flow volume, and the stock FPR will give you the correct pruessure control. You just need to make sure you leave the inline pump running all the time. I ran the inline pump that way when I had the NOS 5176 dry kit.

Your motor combination definately will be a strong one at that from the sounds of it!
I lost a motor this past year utilizing the fuel combination that your contemplating. With the type of power your motor will be make and not to mention the torq, when your car hooks the gravity force the fuel has to over come will be to great coming from the tank to the front of the car with only a 255 intake. Look at it like this nitous psi at 950 to 1050 psi versus fuel at say any where between 5 psi to 13 psi depending on your setup and or tuneup which one do you think will get to the motor first? I can tell ya the nitrous does. I have a few pistons to prove it.
This year I decided to have one of the top nitrous tuners setup and flow my nitrous systems with my new motor combination. Jeff Prock at Applied Nitrous Tech. plumbed my intake manifold. The setup included welded bongs on the runners to use annular nozzles. The intake is a LT-4 with a custome pro race fogger kit this thing is trick! For extra fee he will also bench flow and setup the nitrous kit and fuel system to give you three nitrous tuneups or what ever you want such as 250hp, 350hp, 400hp or what ever your motor setup is up to or what you want to run. Jeff is straight forward and will tell ya the truth plus he will not try to sell you something you don't need either. Do some checking around and you will most definatlly see some of his work out there. He has setup and tuned many of the top NMCA/NSCA cars running. I know that he tunned the Pelech Bros 10.5 tire car to run class record in a back half car to a 7.62et in the 1/4 mile. WOW!
My fuel system utilized a front mounted 1 gallon fuel cell and it's own fuel pump system seperate from the motor. I'm using new for this year (recommended from Mr. Prock) Magna Flow fuel pump Quick Star 300 pump. I was amazed at the quality of this guy's work plus not to mention the tuneup (jet pattern,fuel psi) he sent back to me to run. I wish I had the ability to post the pictures of his work he did on my intake. I have ran both NX,Top Gun and so on. Let me tell ya do not trust what the flacks in the tech dept at the nitrous companys tell ya!
IMO I would run a complete seperate fuel system. Possibly you could get by with what your contemplating with small shots but like all things all of use try 100hp then 125hp and then 150hp and so on. I wouldn't chance anything over 125hp. I hate to hear anybody have as much investment as what you have go up in smoke in less than seconds over something as small as lack of fuel. Never go low buck on the fuel system for your nitrous. The few bucks you try to save will show up in that $10,000.00 plus motor.
If ya need any of the info regarding the fuel system that was recommend to me give a shout.
Good Luck!

since that wont work, more ?'s.
This inline aeromotive pump I want to put in. Will I have to pull the intank pump out or run them both. Sorry guy's, don't know much about the fuel system right now. Would this pump wire up to my factory pump wires, or do I need to run new wires? I was told that the factory fuel lines were fine. I'm guessing this thing will make close to 500rwhp, with a 200 shot or bigger, we're taking over 700+ to the wheels. Will the stock fuel line support that, or do I need a new fuel system all together.

You may want to look at what Racetronix has to offer. It's more than adiquate for a 400na plus 150 shot. If not then a cell/pump just for the n2o would do it.
JWINN, great post, welcome to the board.
