High flow TBI fuel pump??

Hey guys, what's a good high flow fuel pump for a TBI? Something to support 450hp or so?

Re: High flow TBI fuel pump??

If I recall correctly, a TPI pump or a Walbro 190 LPH should be good for those numbers, assuming you mean flywheel HP. I'm planning on just going w/a TPI pump when I do my 350 swap, but I'm only shooting for 300-325 HP or so.

Yep, swap in a TPI pump. I've been using one for a LT1 Caprice for years. The excess fuel just pisses back to the fuel tank.

Re: High flow TBI fuel pump??

Hello All,
I have a 93 Caprice TBI 350 L05. Will this pump work for me as well or just for the F-bodies?
