Aeromotive in tank pump system

[A70Runner]

Is anyone running this setup? My only concern is it only has -6 an fittings. Going into a 70 RR with a 496 dynod at 650+. Street strip car. Thanks!

Is their setup available with -8 or better yet -10?

This is all it says on the website. I tried emailing their tech support a few months ago but never heard back. (Strike One).

No experience with it yet but I have this tank with the 340 lph pump ready to go into my 69 super bee with a 600hp 505. Planning to do a mix of -8an and 1/2" hardline for feed/return and I got the Aeromotive dual fuel pressure regulator (13220). They rate the setup for 750hp for NA carb engines.

-6 is basically 3/8". I'm running that setup with the 340lph for my 440. Do you know what size injectors they ran and pressure when they dyno'd the engine. Or what the gph and jets were if it was carb'd?

1/2 a pound of fuel per hour per horsepower. Basically fuel weighs 6 lbs per gallon. 650 HP would be 325 pounds of fuel per hour or 54 US gallons / hour. 215 litres per hour that will go happily through a 3/8 line. That and how long are you ever going to have that 650HP kicked in for...

Don't forget that every fitting you have from front to back is a restrictor. Look at the id of the fittings.

When the pump is in the tank, that becomes a pressure line instead of a supply line. When the fuel is already under pressure, a larger line isn't needed.

Keep in mind also at full power and say accelerating at 1g with 650hp, that is the equivalent of 14'? of head the pump is dealing with, besides whatever filter, fittings and line restrictions are also at play.
