GT40's are returnless fuel pumps, he's got a 97 which is return style setup

I'd look into an 03 cobra fuel tank, fore precision's return style fuel hat with 2 fuel pumps(dont know what kind to suggest), bigger fuel lines, fuel rails(wouldnt hurt), and 60# injectors. I know the tank and pump hat are somewhat expensive, but you dont wanna blow your car up and with the pumps in-tank, it will make it a bit quieter, right???

Not what you want with a return style system

Why not??? And what about with a sumped tank??? Cus i dont know why that would be bad for a return style. Cobra guys are running them no problem.

Just add a sump, two bosch pumps, two filters, lines, fittings, rails, FPR and you're done.

Stock lines will take you to 600 with two HV 255's and 60# injectors.

One thing to keep in mind, if you haven't purchased your pistons yet... you can choose what ever head you want and then pick the appropriate dish of piston to accomplish your desired CR.

If you end up going with PI heads, you will just need to purchase a larger dished piston, no biggy.

well, im definately going to worry about my fuel setup dead last on this project, before the motor actually goes back in the car. My first steps will be happening in the next few weeks include:
Send SQ trim to Vortech to upgrade to SI trim
I'm currently working on a set of barely used PI stock heads
