fuel system suggestions

[daturbosix]

so say someone is building a 1300hp single turboed efi sbc car..

what fuel pump, filter, and injectors should this person look into?

thank you for looking.

 

[Chevota]

Gas, Ethanol, or Methanol? Mechanical or electrical pump? KAM, BS3, XFI, or mechanical? Budget? -10AN filter and Pro series Aeromotive and 160's will be the minimum allowable and cheapest.

running xfi, gas, looking for a electrical-streetable system.

1300 RWHP Or Flywheel?

2025 Weldon minimum with a controller if the car will be street driven. If track only, no controller.

RWHP...

yes i will try to street drive it... so i agree on the controller.

i was reading something about certain injectors require a certain amount of fuel pressure... anyone care to shed some light on that subject?

1300 hp will require roughly 110 gph total fuel flow. That's 8 of 83#/hr injectors (if they were static or 100% dc). But you want some margin or headroom so if you were only running 85% dc, you will need approx. 97#/hr injectors (pick 95#/hr). Looking at a plot of a 95#/hr injector and some big pumps, making sure those 2 curves cross above 70 psi (assuming 45 psi base plus 25 psi boost), you will need, as a minimum pump (in order of increasing capacity):

Aeromotive eliminator, 6 psi and 8 gph margin
Weldon 2032, 7 psi and 10 gph margin
Weldon 2025, 12 psi and 14 gph margin

2025 min if your talking motor power. For 1300 rwhp you'll want a 2345 with a controller and 160's whether it's 1300 on the motor or 1300 at the tires. No reason to run anything less than 160's with the XFI system.

At 100% dc:
Aeromotive eliminator, 6 psi and 8 gph margin
Weldon 2032, 7 psi and 10 gph margin
Weldon 2025, 12 psi and 14 gph margin

At 85% dc:
Aeromotive eliminator, 8 psi and 8 gph margin
Weldon 2032, 10 psi and 12 gph margin
Weldon 2025, 22 psi and 24 gph margin

magnafuel prostar 500 with filter 12 an from tank to pump 10-an to regulators (always use bigger supply to pump) with a air bleed return line
