Murlo I know someone with a truck that will run you when you get your new setup. :lol:

Walbro 450 is the E85-compatible version of the Walbro 400.

I was under the impression the wally 255 was good for... roughly 500whp e85.
Guess what power level I was at when I ran out of pump on E85 :)
I just installed a Wally 400 E85 aka Walbro 416 aka Walbro 450 and fuel pressure issues have been resolved.

You know what I meant. but won't that work?

That is currently what I have.
The problem is that just feels like overkill to me.
I think I will try the AEM 320 and see what that does. The wally 450 on my setup is doing 700+whp right now on e85 haha.

Not if he wants his car to idle properly without modifying everything under the sun. Just look at how complicated Scheides' fuel setup has become trying to get his to idle at a proper AFR and fuel pressure.

To be fair, mine idles pretty damn good now. yes it gets a consistent misfire (p0300, so who knows) at idle, basically just on startup or idle but otherwise the car is smooth.
I guess the reason for not going big is two fold:
- Save money
- keep base pressure low and make tuning easier

I don't care enough to look. I didn't realize the pump would lead to idle issues.
Anywho, I came in to ask are you gonna race on big power before you de-mod and then wonder what the car would of/could of done?

Nah, not even going to try honestly.
Actually I forgot about several things this weekend so I can't even do the amery run now :(
All I am going to do is hit up MAP next friday and get real dyno numbers and then I can use ricer math to figure out what could've been.
