johnny

Keep in mind over kill in the fuel system is neccessary for engine reliability. I made custom 5/8 pick ups for my tank, -10 to the A1000 pumps, -10 to the carbs, a 1:1 boost referenced pressure regulator, and a -8 return line. Aeromotive 100micron filters on the input of the pumps, and Perma cool fuel/water seperaters on the output. I also found a Fram water/fuel filter I like better then the Perma cool filter(both filters use the same screw on base). I will try to get the part # posted.

If I'm at 90 or more, I will be happy.

90 or more... lol, I am very positive you will be at 100 or so with 750 HP...

I hope your right, but I'm not sure without serious prop and drive work.

Let's see what happens in the spring.
