May squeeze 700 out of it but it just a bandage, add a external aux fuel pump and a pressure switch or buy a dual pump system

+1 for Hou30guy.

You'll be happy with your setup for about 6 months tops, then you'll want to pulley down for more boost and hp. Give yourself room for growth on the front end so you don't buy stuff twice...or three times...

Do the fuel now, get a twin in-tank setup. AGP / Squash / and Fore all seem to be reputable systems around here. I am running the squash dual 450 Walbro with the second pump coming on with a 2psi hobbs switch. Running E-85 flex fuel setup and ID-1700s.

Getting a aux pump and plum it with the zl1 pump will be the cheapest and just as good as a twin pump setup
