Default Any suggestions on the pump

I have a seirra 1999 4x4 with the 5.3 that I'm pulling out to put a lsa ls3 with the super charger on it so it should push around 650 Rwhp with my mods. What's the biggest race or walbo I can put In it. The lsa fuel rails are a dead end system as well so I'd hate to burn the pump up. Any help would be amazing Guys

Walbro 400/450 is the standard option these days. 's basically a drop in the stock fuel module bucket minus a little bit of dremelling. ItFor proper operation though you will need an aftermarket fuel regulator.

I prefer dual walbro 255s. It is a little more complex setup but the walbro 255 reliability has been proven over the last 10+ years. I might jump on the 450 bandwagon once it has been proven to last, IMO it is just to new to say that.

Everyone else will say 450. I stick with what i know works.

On that that would my stock fuel lines be big enough to feed it ? Where I can just put a regulator on before the lines on the blower ?

stock lines should be good to around 1000 on gas with enough pump pushing

Yes but make sure you upgrade the wiring going to the pump too, the stock wiring wont like that much draw from a big pump
