HIGH HP carb setup fuel system
I currently have a 355 with a SR and nice shot of gas(around 500 rwhp) I am switching up and going with a turbo/carb setup and aiming for about 650 rwhp.
I have a couple questions on the fuel system. First will the stock lines support this? I have heard they are good up to only 500 or so. Also, now I have a walbro 255 intank pump thats been doing well with my current setup, but i dont believe it will support my new carbs volume needs.
What are my options? I would like to discuss sumping/cells also, but would like to stay with a stock like setup as my friend has problems with his sumped stock tank starving for fuel sometimes. Anyone do cells in these cars?
TIA
Chris

I think you'd do better on the Power Adder forum, rather than Carb.
