Ok I am going to upgrade my fuel lines and rails.. havnt chosen a set yet but what evers good works for me. anyway Im running a 255 intake pump and the t rex inline pump with 42 injectors. With the upgraded fuel lines and rails how much power can i support I dont want to change injectors / pump. How much will the pumps support? Anyone have any combos with this set up making some serious power?

with those pumps and injectors you should be able to support at least 500rwhp with the stock lines

Too bad the stock block usually cracks inhalf with that much power (450+ RWHP)

The stock lines / rails are good enough for almost all street driven purposes

the pumps you listed will support 500-600 hp, but you really need to upgrade to 1/2" (-8AN) fuel line and quality fuel rails.

Im upgrading the complete lines and rails with a 347 stroker dart block and victor jr heads.. I just want to know what i can support with the pump and injectors and some nasty fuel lines/rails. Anyone have a similiar combo? I have a friend with 42s making 560whp not even maxed out but he has upgraded lines and rails but a really nasty fuel pump. I just wanna know how much these fuel pumps will reach with the 42s

i think your done with gas... you have to remember the secret to big horsepower is a complete system... air, fuel and spark, i think you've got the fuel coverd get some big air (intake/blower/nitrous(dont forget nitrous is air)) and a good ignition system and youll have more than a few extra ponies
