Fuel pump too large????

I bought a fuel pump from TPI Specialties last year and have yet to put it in. It is the 300-178 "in tank" pump. It supposed to be good for 550 hp. Is anybody using this pump??? I am wondering if by chance it is too large and might overpower my return line...

I doubt the you can over whelm the return line. If you said it was for your car and gave them the right info, that pump will work great for you.

When I upgraded my fuel pump, I bought the TTA pump from Pontiac.
