fuel system suggestions please
I have an 05 Silverado with a returnless fuel system. I have a Magnacharger that came with the 190lph Walbro pump. I want to upgrade the system to support 500rwhp (along with my meth kit) without starving the engine. I was thinking of going with a 044 Bosch pump and putting it in the tank. Can I run the regulator that is on my Magnacharger, or wont it support the higher flow? Do I have to run a return line? Do I need to use a bigger fuel line, or is the stock line sufficient? Is there another pump that I should get as opposed to the Bosch?

Trever1, I actually forgot that I bought a magnavolt a few months ago. Too many parts laying around. Actually I think my setup is pretty close to what you were doing when you broke 500 on the hp list. OK, so I will be running the stock pump to the Walbro inline with a magnavolt. I too have 60lbers. Do you know if you had the 190lph, or the 255lph?

Ok, I purchased a Walbro 255, and when I purchased it i was told that I need to run a regulator. I bought an adjustable regulator, and intended putting it on the frame. I pulled the tank yesterday, and when installing the pump was wondering if anyone is using the in-tank filter and regulator that is on a returnless fuel system. Does anyone use this, or do you run a separate regulator and filter?

Just so everyone knows, I ended up with a Walbro 255 pump, Aeromotive A1000 regulator, and a Magnavolt. Without the meth kit my PSI is going from 58 PSI down to about 41 PSI at 6300 RPM's. I planned on turning it 7k, but I am going to have to make some changes somewhere. I am going to tie the front of the fuel rails together to even out the flow and see if that helps. Any suggestions?
