Fuel pump suggestions?
Which kind should I get? I have a 2001 6-speed supercharged Corvette. The car ran out of fuel up top and I need something in tank that can support around 600 at the wheels. I was thinking about the holley that is shown here:

My only question is, will I need to modify anything to make it fit? Thanks!

EDIT: I also plan on running the KB Boost-A-Pump but am not sure what setting it should be on for this kind of power...again, thanks for the help! I also currently have 42LBS injectors on the car...

Check the F/I forums for better info. From what I gather the normal setup is either a intank LPE or Racetronix pump augmented with a boost referenced MSD or KB boost a pump for FI cars. The LPE seems to be the more reliable pump. Both should support ~700 hp. You could also do alcohol injection or, if you want to spend more money, you could go with an ECS custom fuel system.

I run the LPE intank pump with the KB BAP and I run in the mid 700 to the rear and so far so good, although I converted my system to the 97-98 model with the return and see high 50's under WOT, I also have to feed 60 lb Motrons

Was the fuel pump easy to install.
