I am using aeromotive 340 intank. Doing very well so far. Check my sig. I am using ractronix pump wiring kit because the pump draws more current and will need stronger wiring.

I went through 3 stock flex fuel pumps at 10psi before I finally got a Walbro 450. Maybe it was the Kenne Bell boost a pump killing them, or maybe they were just being overworked. Or maybe I just have terrible luck. My $.02

I'm still running my stock flex fuel pump on my 427lsx with a 106 on 10lbs so stock will be plenty for your setup.
I do appoligize for not being on. But yes i do have a flex fuel. My A/F is spot on 12.4 WOT pull on the dyno untill 4800-5000rpm and then it jumps straight up to 14ish. Injector duty cycle is at 80%. I even tried adding more fuel from the MAF scaleing table but it did not help at all.

what did you adjust that table to where it reads 14afr. three6gmc?
