Electric fuel pump w/nitrous
what is a good fuel pump to install with a NOS kit of 100 extra horsepower on a 77 corvette with a 750 holley carb. Is install easy. I wanted to get rid of the holley mech fuel pump on the side of the block to one by the gas tank in back.. Help me out please. The motor with out nitrous puts out 400hp

I have a Carter 4600hp, $75 at JEGS. When I use N2O it is usually a 125 shot. I also use a regulator with a return line. It free-flowed one gallon in 17 seconds (through a K&N filter before the pump). Been in use for 4 years now.

I use the holley Blue pump with a regulator. They are noisy but I have found the perfect isolation mount to use with the pump. I do not hear my pump.

Please consider using an inertia switch so the electric pump will shut down in the event of an accident!!! I cannot stress this enough... It could save your life. For many years, Ford has used them so you could pick one up and modify it to your design from most any salvage yard.
