Will I be ok?

Hey ladies and gents,

I am finally putting some mods on my car. Pretty excited and I thought I would get some opinions.

I have a RotoFab CAI. I am having BIG injectors, a lingenfelter pulley kit, and a e85 sensor installed with a tune. Im assuming this will put me right around 600-615rwhp. This is where I want to be for the time being, or until I can convince my wife that headers are good for the environment. My question however, is do you all think that with 600ish rwhp that i will be ok with the stock pump. I have read things that say it will be perfectly ok with that setup, and others that say don't. My mechanic has worked on thousands of hot rod cars, GT500s, ZL1s, Vettes, ect. He is known for KNOWING his stuff and has a 5 star rating in our area. He works on almost all the well known drag racers cars in my area. I have talked with the guy probably a dozen times and he has my trust, but I thought I would open this up for some discussion. He told me that if i wanna push to 700rwhp or do headers, a cam, and cat deletes i would probably want to look at a new fuel system. He said he had done several flex sensor kits without new fuels systems and its perfectly fine. He did it on his own personal Corvette. What do you guys think? Take it easy on me, Im learning everyday!
