Fuel system setups?

I have a 02 C5z with APS TT kit. Getting prepared to build a 6.0 and drop it in, as well as turning up
the boost. Goal is ~850rwhp any recommendations for a decent fuel setup?

Mines a ffs system so I just had a fore kit installed.

The Ecs kit has a nice fuel block. I think there's someone on here that makes a dual pump hat system for the early model c5 side mount fuel hats also.

If I had to do it all over from scratch, I'd do twin walbro 450's in the tank. Trigger the 2nd pump with a Hobbs switch.

Talk to Bret(blownbluez06) about his twin in tank pump setup and call it a day.

That's the route I went and it should be good to 1000rwhp on pump gas. You'll probably get the longest life out of the 2nd pump putting it inside the tank instead of outside.

i like the external pump setups personally for ease of working on and ease of installation. I'm with ECS stage 2, c6z06 in tank and dual meth at 900whp the fuel pressure is rock solid all the way to 175+mph, I've heard of other guys with this same fuel setup making >1k whp pretty easily. pump gas.
