Default Fuel pump set up?

What would be the best fuel pump set up for the V6 trying to get 500+hp? Dual pumps or single. Im looking at two 255 pumps from Lightning force. or is there a single that would work better? Like the GT40 pump. I will be getting a larger fuel rail also.

Ok let me try it this way. What would be your DRAEM set up for your V6?

My bad I did a search and now I know everything about fuel pumps, fuel rails, fuel reg's, and so on. Now I'm looking for the 03-04 cobra pumps.

I would just run a cobra hat and tank, with supercar pumps, I believe the FPDM has to be upgraded, but I'm not 100%, you could also just run a boost-a-pump

I have to agree with the above for the dream setup, also through some big fat -AN lines

I found a 01 GT pump with tank on the G-list for 40.00 bucks. But I think I'll keep looking.

The GT tank and pump is the same as the stock v6 stuff. i bought my Termi tank for $450 shipped off of SVTP. The Termi tank, and ONLY the termi tank, has a baffle built in it. The Mach/GT/V6 tank and pump setups are all the same.

Thanks RyansQuicks6
Is the pump out of the 03-04 cobra going to be my best bet? If so will it drop right in the tank I have now (stock) Or will I have to mod?
I found one at a junk yard but they want $250.00 just for the pump. deal or no deal? I'm thinking that the cobra pump is good for 800hp or so.
