we are going to start with 5 for now. 4 of them running on a voltage booster. that should hold us for a little while. i really hate the big pumps. they are expensive, loud, unreliable and move too much fuel most of the time. with multiple smaller pumps we are going to stage then turn on points so there is never a ton coming back thru the return line and it will be very quiet.

right now 72's because it is what we had laying around. we are thinking about puting one 160 in each intake tube. 8x72 + 2x160 = 896lb's of fuel. that would be something like 700+rwhp worth of meth. that would be about right for a stock motor. later when we step up to a built motor we will probably end up with 10 160's.
