For right now I'm just going to shoot for around 600-700 rear wheel, on gas. The turbo will support over 1000rw but its going on the stock 4.8 till it craters. When I get a stronger motor built and crank up the boost, I'm going to put it on E85. I guess I don't really need to run the cell, but I wasn't sure how to hook up the magnafuel to the factory tank and lines. Seemed like hooking up new braided lines and what not to a cell would make it a little easier. Not quite that easy I guess lol.

I'm gonna say to return the cell and pump. Get a intake pump setup or a dual intake setup.
That way your fuel level sender will work. It bolts up. No bs about filling it. Just around seems like the best route.

Why would he return the cell? The cell is better in this setup than the OEM tank. The cell should be sumped and will feed the magnafuel by gravity. And you still drop your fuel bucket into the cell and you retain the factory fuel level sensor.

I can't return them. Bought them from some guys that were changing combos. The cell has the 0-90ohm sender for chevy's fuel gauge. What's involved in hooking up the fuel pressure sensor to the fuel rails? I've read things about fuel tank pressure sensors on these trucks, is there two pressure sensors in this fuel system or just one? Im asking because Im guessing that fuel pressure is a pretty necessary parameter for the pcm to have, just wondering what all would be involved in plumbing a pressure sensor into aftermarket fuel lines or rails.
