My personal opinion on that is that I prefer to overbuild the fuel system. Its just a peace of mind thing.

I bought my Edelbrock E-Force from JDM Eningeering. They, as well as Tillman, sell a kit that includes bigger injectors and a GT500 fuel pump. I'm very happy with it.

My kit makes 450rwhp and that allegedly would have the stock fuel system about maxed out. I don't want my fuel system about maxed out.

I am running the granatelli kit.

I originally had the stock pump with no issues but added the BAP for safety. if you are running a power level that will still make the motor last then you stock umo at 39lbs injectors will be fine as long as your tuner is good.

Forget BAP. they are a voltage amplifier and end up burning out the stock pumps. The stock fuel system is designed to run on a varaible 0-5v ref. The BAP sends voer 14 volts to the pump. almost 3 times what it was designed to do. Run the 2 Ford GT pumps, a FPDM wiring upgrade (no need to pugrade to 2 FPDM or the GT500 system) and the 39lb injectors can handle the rest up to about 540 to 550 wheel. At 515 wheel I am running just under 85% duty cycle which is easily within the margin of safety I like to see.

That there you go...... Siimple and easy.... 2 GT pumps, a 440 wiring upgrade, and the stock blower kit injectors can make over 500 wheel reliably.
