Have 800hp blower morors and need input on mechanical fuel pumps. Has anyone tried a Race Pumps brand mechanical pump. The fuel system the boat came with consists of Holley blues of which I have no faith in. There is piping and fittings that where once used for a return to the tank fuel system but have been capped off?

Do you have any more info on these pumps? I would like to upgrade to a mechanical as well but I will need a gen 4(in the block) and a gen 5(in the water pump housing).Do they make them in both styles and whats the pressure and flow rate?
