Yeah...don't, that pump is way over kill for anything needed.

The regular Walbro is also way over kill (90 gals, per hr.)
The EP 381 AC Delco works best for up 450HP

Re: New intank pump

Ok

The new stroker is built for 500fwhp,the fuelpressure drops to 20psi over 4500rpm and lean out.
So i bought a walbro 450 for E85 sense the engine is made for ethanol.
Could it be somthing else cousing that pressure drop ?
I have change filter,maybe the stealthram fuelpressure regulator.
I am alsoe going to install at airomotive fpr and a Y fuelrail split.

What can be wrong by installing as you say, a overkill pump ?
