What Fuel Pump for 700whp E85 NA Motor?
Hi all
Looking for recommendations for a fuel pump for a up-to-700whp NA motor running E85. Stock Z06 pump can't keep up. I have come across DW external pumps and Racetronix / Walbro in-tank options, but what's working based on actual experience?

We used the following on our 500 cubic inch LS that made 675rwhp on 93:
LPE L710140105
Racetronix FPWH-008
Racetronix IPH-008
You can also add a voltage booster if you would like, but likely not needed.

With 1050X injectors, I'm running the Walbro 450 with Racetronix Hotwire kit. Worth noting I also run a DC Power billet alternator to make sure I've got adequate amperage at high RPM to the pump as well.
I also have a mechanical fuel pressure gauge at the rails to confirm 60+ psi at 7800 RPM.
700 +/- 10 RWHP on E.

A walbro 450 should do it. I ran a Walbro 525 and had some pressure drop issues at higher RPM. I also ran the hot wire kit and 8an feed line. The 525 flows too much for the stock hat. I made 707whp, NA.
My new engine should make close to 800whp. I modified the stock hat and run the Racetronix dual 340lph pumps, now.

I could be wrong, but I believe the lingenfelter and racetronix modules use the same walbro 274 fuel pump. I have the lingenfelter kit to install if e85 kills my stock pump. So far it's keeping up at 40% e

Hi all
Thanks for your inputs. I went with the Racetronix TU475-450 LPH in-tank pump module with the Walbro 450 and wiring harness upgrades, and it's running fine; car made ~670whp on E85 and holding 58-61psi fuel pressure.
