Hello, so after much reading I think I want to go with a https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sne-550-511 Holley Sniper unit and a https://www.summitracing.com/parts/aei-18688 Aeromotive Phantom fuel pump set up.

I have a 350hp SBC crate engine in a 82 chevy truck with a carb. I plan on getting a new tank from a 87 which came from the factory with fuel injection and that will make sure I have no junk in the current tank and then I dont have to worry about blowing myself up installing the Phantom pump. My truck is already set up with a return line and I already have a pressure regulator set up with my carb for the high flow mechanical pump. I also have a stock-ish HEI distributor and wasnt sure if it would be worth researching a FI system that could control timing, also would be worth it and what the extra cost would be.

So I guess my question would be is there a better way to do this? I really want to do an in-tank fuel pump, and the only real plans that might change down the road is adding in some electric fans for the radiator, which I read this unit can control if I understood it correctly.

I don’t see any issues with your idea.
The sniper can control timing, and there are advantages to that, but you can have good results without it too. We’ve installed the, with and without timing control, There is just more flexibility in the ecu timing control.

I’d be happy to provide a quote for these parts too.
