fuel pump needed for 355

Most of you probably know about the motor I am have. 355, AFR , xtreme cam, 24lb injectors, Hooker long tubes, 10.5/1 compression, fully done TPI . The question is do I need a helper fuel pump to keep up with the extra hp, or what. The car was originally a 305TPI car. If so, what is everyone running.

Thanks

Chris

I have an 85' ex 305 similar to yours

355 AFR 190's
cam

I ran the stock pump on the engine and never had a lean problem.

I changed to a 190lph pump becuase I thought the pump went bad.

This works up over 400hp and is a direct replacement.

They also make 255 lph in tank pumps in case your really worried.

Also, I just put on a Paxton SN-2000 that I plan on running with the 190lph. I may add a booster if I need it.
