Aeromotive FP

I'm currently preparing my 10th ann T2 for an upgraded turbo. I'm going to go with a 60-1 hybrid from BNR...not sure on which trim yet. The car is going to have stock ports for now. Fuel wise I'm going to run 4 720cc by an afc and run 2 of my 550's with the F5 haltech. Question now is what fuel system? I really only want to the fuel once. The best setup in my mind is to sump the stock tank and run the 1000hp aeromotive pump, -10 line, 1:1 fpr..etc. The only problem I see is possible vapor lock of the fuel from that godzilla pump.Seeing as how the engine would at most be outputing 400hp, I'd really only need a 255gph pump and the aeromotive is atleast 485 or so. I guess I could get aeromotives fuel pump regulator that kicks down the voltage at idle/cruise. I suppose my question is: How many of you guys at this level run this kind of setup..or do you suggest something different? Thanks fellas.

That is similar to the set-up I run. I am super-happy with it.
I use the Eliminator (1200hp) pump, and the -10 AN regulator, all braided stainless steel lines, self sumped stock tank.
I bought the system for my future plans.... which will require a HUGE pump.
What do you need to know about the system?

BTW, do not mount the pump to the body or frame without isolators.... you'll regret it.

Where did you get the Isolators? if you made them, can you be more specific?

Isolators are rubber mounts. I used some from MSD (ordered my retard unit at the same time I order my fuel system), but any round rubber washers would work fine.

The pump emits a large amount of noise and vibration when bolted on without them.
