What are the limits of a mechanical pump ?
What brand is the best and rod ? (damn, went over my ONE question)
If that's 600hp on the dyno with open pipes, then a good old Carter or Edelbrock will do just fine (because you'll be down under 500 hp with everything hooked up). But, if you want some insurance, you can use RobbMc's 550HP Mechanical Pump. http://www.robbmcperformance.com/pro...fordfe550.html BTW, he also makes an 1100HP version of that pump. I don't know anyone that uses it though, only because I don't know anyone with an 1100HP FE.
