I am going to replace some components in my fuel system. Having some issues with fuel pressure while racing. Current fuel system is pretty old, and "eventually" I will be going from the current 451 to a 540 motor.
With that in mind,,,,, what would you guys recomend for a fuel pump and regulator that will work with my 451,,,and handle a bigger motor down the road ....?
Also, what do you guys like for filters ?
Current system is a "small" holley black pump and BG regulator and "can" style, paper filter

I agree w/ Bill, go big now and be done with it. I'd use either an Aeromotive or Magnafuel pump w/ the filter they recommend for each one. I have an Aeromotive A1000 pump on the cuda. For a race only car I'd use the A2000 pump.

Spend the money on a Magnafuel 500 pump filter combo. Be the last pump you buy. Not cheap, but the best you can get period. Bought mine used, and never have regretted it one bit.

Product Engineering has some really nice pumps, regulators, etc. Very similar to the magnafuels but have heard a little better results.
