Can anyone recommend a fuel pump for a 455 olds with a 770cfm Holley carb and 2 inch spacer?  Thanks!

What psi would I want from an electric?  Mechanical is good but I'm leaning toward electric.  So I'm curious what I would need.  Psi and gph

I run an electric because i HAVE to

If i had the choice, id go mechanical... hell of a lot more reliable... can buy one anywhere if you're on a trip and it dies

Typically a mechanical doesnt just fail...

To answer your question. 4-7psi if you dont want to run a regulator
