mechanical fuel pumps
how much gph pump would i need to support a carbed 350 wet w/carb plate system on a 350 shot.
Is there a mechanical pump out there to suport this kinda juice?
would a 130gph work?
I see most close to all running electric pumps shoud i go with eletric? what size line 3/8?
I really need these ? answered thanks alot guys.

Well personally, I would go with a dedicated fuel system for a shot that big. You don't want any drop in fuel pressure when dealing with that much nitrous. I would keep a nice 110 gph mechanical for the motor, and run at least a holley blue or black pump with a regulator strictly for the nitrous. I am in the process of putting together a dedicated fuel system for my nitrous kit. It consists of a 1 gallon fuel cell mounted in the front of the car (opposite of the battery) and a holley blue pump with regulator. As far as the supply line goes, I'm running a -8AN from the cell to the pump, and then -6AN from the pump to the Fuel solenoid. Hopefully I will be putting this system together fairly soon, so I will take pictures when I'm done. Let me know if you need any more info.
