At what point should I be concerned about running out of fuel pump?
Car has run [email protected] at 3510 race weight. Fuel pressure is perfect on my datalogger. I'm just wondering how much room I have?

been [email protected] and [email protected] you got plenty of room left to go. approx 1125 fwhp if not a tick more

How heavy is your car.

^^^Was just thinkin' the same thing, more of a load being applied on the supply.

S480 is 119lbs./min.? You've got the standard cover, if I remember right?

I have std cover S480, I dont remember what the lbs/min is for it. and my Camaro is 3510 w/me

3200+ but i also run 43lbs of fuel pressure under boost. so that takes some flow ability from the pump. there is plenty more left there believe me

I know there is plenty left because I run the same pump and reg. and a single needle carb on e85 and run almost exactly what you do @3250lb. I was told that my carb and pump were good for 900hp at the crank on e85, but I know there is a safety margin in that figure.
