KB BAP with Maggie tvs2300

Will kenne bell boost a pump with 2010 ss stock fuel pump be enough for ls3 conversion, stainless works headers, vmax TB, JRE rough idle blower cam Maggie tvs2300 with cog OD, 8 rib and 60lb injectors. I'm hoping to be around 600rwhp. Thanks

I went with the ZL1 pump because BAP's are like a band aid. If you can swing it, swap the pump. No need to play Russian roulette with your motor.

I'm running 9.5 pounds of boost, cam, OD cogs and stock front pulley and I'm over 640rwhp on an M6, so you will be fairly close to 600rwhp with the auto.

I wouldn't chance it if it was me.

picked this up from janetty post. I have tested the stock pump against the ZL-1 Pump with MSD Voltage booster on the same car the same day at 640 RWHP LS3 Maggie Cam Headers, Due to Fuel Pressure Drop.

The fuel pressure was dropping to 52 PSI with the stock pump, So we installed a New ZL-1 Pump ran it on the dyno, then put a second ZL-1 Pump in because I thought there was something wrong with the first one as NEITHER ZL-1 Pump did as Well as the Stock Pump, Pressure was dropping to 48 PSI on both ZL-1 Pumps.

Weird I know but We did the Leg Work to test it, and did not see any improvement.

I am testing some different calibrations to run with the ZL-1 Fuel pump on the Regular SS Camaros.

The ZL-1 Pump is Great in a ZL-1 but I have not been impressed with it on the Regular SS Camaro.
