Default Bigger fuel pump needed, but????

Are there any available that will just "bolt-in"? My mods are in my sig, but I will be adding a sportsman fogger jetted at 150 and eventually this pump will be feeding a 406. I'm also stepping into a 30# injector.

TPIS sells a pump that will just bolt in that is capable of supplying enough fuel for 400 to 425 HP. That pump sells for 100 dollars. They also sell a pump that is capable of supplying enough fuel for 550 HP but this one does require some minor modification to the mounting brackets. That pump sells for 180 dollars.

I went with the Walbro gss340. About $150.00. Then wire in your own relay-10gauge wire from the battery to the pump; use the original power as a switch on the relay. The Walbro fits right in with only mods to the wiring.
It feeds mine just fine...should feed your future mods too.

I run dual GSS340's. I think I paid $119 for one and $129 for the other. One should suffice though.

I was planning on running a separate system for the nitrous anyways. I just don't want to hassle with any major modifications inside the tank.
