paxton in-line fuel pump...
paxton external fuel pump.....yes or no
I have a chance to buy this fairly cheap...is this too much for N/A... engine is basically B20B short block/GSR(P72) head.....running about 12.8:1 compression... rest of fuel system is AEM fuel pressure regulator, AEM fuel rail, RC 310cc injectors, dual fuel feed to fuel rail/two fuel filters and braided stainless lines all around... msd 6al/dis. cap/wires/blaster 2 coil and denso plugs would be doing the sparking... any opinions about this in-line pump would be appreciated:smoker:

paxton makes good stuff from my prior experiences... just make sure the pump you're looking at is a high volume pump for EFI (90-130 psi) pump and not a carburetor pump (8-30 psi)

What's the LPH or GPH rated flow of the pump? And do you know what the rated flow is at the fuel pressure you're running? If this is a race car this might be a viable option, if it's a street car I highly recommend against inline pumps. Fuel pumps (especially the big flow external pumps) are actually quite loud, which is why no factory car places them anywhere except in the fuel tank. At stock fuel pressure settings it's easy to get an inline pump that'll flow to 500hp.

ALWAYS mount your fuel pump as close to the tank as possible.
