EFI fuel pump

Looking for a fuel pump with at the minimum 45 psi (what my system need to run)
What do you guys recommend for pumps? Should I look for one that is at least 10psis over the required amount?

Thanks

Arno

Aeromotive all the way....you can browse their website for recommendations.

x2 on the Aeromotive, but they are loud. I used one on my coupe with efi stacks and it was super reliable. If you can go with an in tank, do it. Here's the one I used in the coupe, but I only had 450hp. No where close to that monster you are running!

Pretty much any EFI fuel pump can make 45-50 psi without breaking a sweat. But, you need enough flow to feed your engine.

The Aeromotive pumps are excellent, and can feed over 1,000 hp. But, it's definatly overkill for an essentially stock 5.0. For lower power levels, a smaller in tank pump may be more appropriate for you.
