Reaching REALLY deep into the gray matter and will pull a number out of my "dark recesses". I THINK that the fuel flow number is in the vicinity of 4-5 gpm.

I think the gray matter is losing it.
That would put a stock pump at 240 to 300 GPH. Most high performance mechanical pumps are in the range of 120 to 170 GPH.
