How far will 42#ers take me?

I'd suggest building it right the first time and keeping it conservative and you won't be breaking parts, that is no secret.

This is excellent advice. Over-built over-build over-build. Leave the ragged edge for full race vehicles.

If you do a versafueler, you tune as per normal.

Nor will it be enough to feed Cody's desire to go 10 seconds in a 6L. What is the stats on how long these pumps are gonna last with that kind of voltage? Erik what is the IDC on 43's at 85psi? That's without meth. Cody I stick to my original post, 500 to 550. Why bother with something that is fuzzy or has a grey area unless you are okay with a short ending? KB says "...adequate for 560rwhp WITH the boost a pump." In reality going after 10's, you are gonna need more than a boost a pump and inline, but for now...Screw the boost a pump, get larger injectors and tune for them. You have an inline right? You'll have them when you'll need them and while you are trying to bust 10's you'll have enough fuel because the injectors aren't freaking open 100% of the time. Just seems this whole discussion would be better if you asked, "I am getting 96lbers, but I only want to put 600 to 700HP to the ground for now, what fuel support measures should I use? Boost a pump? Inline? Dual intank? Combinatin or all?" That's my unedumucated take on it at least.

stock LQ4, 60lb injectors, KB BAP, 10lbs of boost, 50shot of N2O

Running it on the jagged edge woudl be for that one time deal at the track otherwise it will be turned way down for reliability that is what I am saying. I dont plan to max the damn thing out with a 300 shot or whatever all the time. I just wanted to see if I could push it to a 10 in its current form. The whole point of the thread was that I dont have the money for the versafueler and 96s right now so I wanted to know about what Im looking at hp wise with the 42s. I could always run the nitrous jetting rich to add a little more fuel also...

parish i am only questioning the ridiculous stats of getting 85psi out of a fuel system via a boost a pump. I understand it more than likely won't fail due to over voltage, it's not constant, but a stock pump? why waste the space on paper to give such a stat. If somebody is getting 85psi out of a stock pump to feed 42's to get 620hp...trouble?
