A friend of mine is having Mike(a member here)and myself get his 68 Nova up and running after a 10 year hibernation and what used to be a winner of many street races back in the day including whoopin me, is now steppin up big time. He has the Shafiroff 434 short block and is ordering some AFR`s soon which will produce 12.1.1 comp. and has a .630 lift solid roller and manly rods and crank to handle no more than a 225 shot so, do you guys think the Magnafuel 300 pump can handle this or should he get the 500. Was also thinking about two Holley blacks one motor one nos deadheaded........... ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shruggy.gif) Need your help pleeze cos ths is not my area......... ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbs.gif) I will be plumbing the whole fuel system and wiring the car moving all electronics under the dash and will be installing c-tracs as well. So, watcha think? ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beer.gif)

I'm one of those who would rather have way too much fuel system, than not enough. Personally I would buy the 500 and never worry again no matter what motor or power I was putting down.
You'll get someone to chime in telling you to go the cheapest route possible, to me, do it once, do it right, its not worth the risk.

never use the same regulator for your carb and nos.Nos pressure is definatly different then what u want for ur motor. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbs.gif) For instance a 350 tune for spray can be around 5 1/2 lbs.

Hey y'all ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif) Me and Dom are the ones working on this car. Its a 1968 model not a 73. Anyways, here's a few pics of the stages its in right now. We tried to talk our friend who owns this Nova to go with an all aluminum Indy 572 Hemi...but he was'nt going for it!! ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh2.gif) Here's what we started with. Not too bad looking really, but he hates the orange color, so it will be DA sanded and primered. ![](http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c11/TorinoStyle2/S3010798_zps1e0da8a0.jpg)
