Default Boost-A-Pump for NA Application?

Just wondering if any of you GM guys are using Kenne Bell Boost-A-Pump or MSD Fuel Pump Booster on an NA truck.

My stock fuel pressure is 58 psi but when I go WOT it drops down to 55 psi. I'm running a 383 Hemi Stroker motor with 40# injectors.

Rather than installing an inline pump or making some major modifications to the fuel system, I was wondering if there was someone here running a Boost-A-Pump to fix a fuel pressure drop issue.

Thanks,
PH

I wouldnt think it would work being that it uses positive pressure to activate a higher voltage. My take is no boost, no higher voltage. Unless you can set them to activate at like -2vac???

Yeah, there is a Boost-A-Pump for N/A use that uses a Vacuum switch and activates close to 0 vacuum.

There isn't one dodge guy with a Hemi Ram running an in tank walbro pump. Not sure what the reason is.

Anyone here actually use a Boost-A-Pump?
