Also I'm looking for someone who makes a drop in setup. Not the piggy back system for the stock pump

Look here, this is a kit I and my friend are going to be doing on his Vette soon: YES! It does fit all 2003 1/2 up C5 Vette's with the top of the tank drop in fuel pump - I spoke with them in full detail about the kit and fittment!

Call and talk with them, this set-up is really really nice! and will work well!

Thanks,Matt

Up to 700rwhp, I ran a BAP and Racetronix harness. For more, I got rid of all that and did the Lonnies double pumper fuel system. You gotta send him your tank to have the bucket put in.
