Default What size Fuel pump should i get ?

I have edelbrock heads, e cam, gt40 intake, #24 injectors, pro m 75 mm maf, and a bunch of other crap, but that should be all you need. I am about to order a fuel pump but i dont know what size to get. I may use nitrous in the near future. Thanks guys. Please comment if u dont mind.

I'm with oh so quick. Buy it once and you won't ever have to upgrade if your plans change.

255 isnt just for blown it supports 500 hp. you wont drown anything with a regulator. the regulator is what controls the flow. the pump will only pump what you need. just like a huge alternator. now if you ran without a regulator then yes your going to have issues
