Default fuel help please come in side !!!!!!!

Ok i need to know how much rwhp the stock fuel system can handle and after that what needs to be replaced. Also what injectors work on our trucks and what it would take to get something like 42 pound svo injectors to work. Thanks

I know you have a total different set up but with my 165hp shot, the guys at thunder racing and me thought it came out to about that, I was told that I need a bigger fuel pump. They didnt think you should run over a 100 shot with a stock fuel pump. They said you can but the tech wouldnt. You are going to be needing to feed that baby alot more fuel it looks to me.I will give you a number to a guy that builds turbos if you want. He will help out with tech advice over the phone. He has about a 600 hp 300zx that he has built that he reworked and built the fuel system and down to the fuel rails. I will pm you the number if you like.

I think the 8.1L injectors are 38lbs, you can just pop them in and go.

I think the 8.1L injectors are more like 29 #s. We need to confirm that.

To run the SVOs, you will want to make the injector harness change to the Bosch style plug. A few simple modifications to the fuel rails and LS1 edit to program them in.
