Trying to help a friend out, need a little advice.

440 .030 over should be 10.25 CR Comp Cams solid roller 286/292-576/582 cam Edelbrock RPM heads with 2.19 int. and 1.88 exh. valves with just a little cleaning up.Using the 6-Pack intake and carbs.It will have a 3500 stall B&M converter.Rear gears are 3.54 (I think) in a 69 Road Runner.

He wants to try and stay with a mechanical fuel pump. Summit has 130+ and 170+ GPH pumps in thier catalog I told him either would be fine.He called Summit and they told him the 110 was the biggest they had for a Mopar.To me this seems like it will not be enought.
What pump does everyone else use? Thanks

Carter strip super mechanical pump.Don't remember the specs.Summit,Jegs,or just about anyone else should have them.

I am running the holley 110 gph now and I have a 6-pack 451 480Hp @the rear wheels.
I was going to order the chevy 130 gph and swap lower section. You will then need a regulator

Summit pump # EDL-1723 is the Edelbrock labeled 110 pump. It has 3/8 inlet and outlet. Runs 6psi and is good for 600 HP engines. This pump will handle the engine combo you are describing. I am running a stock 5/16 line carter pump on my 451 with a solid cam shiting at 6300 with no problems and the 1723 is definately a step up from mine.
Cheers Ross
