Default What fuel pump for 1400 hp

What are you guys running for a fuel pump and regulator at 1400 hp? It needs to be boost referenced and a return line.

Weldon 2035 or 2345. Either pump will work at 1400. I opt for the 2345 at 1400.
I usually just use an Aeromotive regulator. They work great and will certainly be sufficient for your setup.

thanks Eddie, but damn one of these days I've got to get you converted to the "right" regualtor..............the 2345-A would be the best bet if 1400+ with a blower.

Use a regulator that is matched to the flow of the pump so it can control the pressure at idle. If you are seeing 1400 hp on the dyno the Procharger is using another 200 or so.

Sorry Jim. Nothing personal. I've just always used an Aeromotive regulator. I've never really given it much thought to be honest with you. I've been using them so long that it's just habit.
I sure was glad to get those 1100A's from you. They performed flawlessly as usual. Made 1100 hp with no issues. They were able to hold 56 psi with ease.
Talk soon.
