I'm in the process of putting my 69 Camaro back together. I'm thinking about purchasing a Shafiroff street 540 with the nitrous upgrade (250 shot). My question is, should I run a single electric fuel pump such as a Barry Grant 400 with a 4 port regulator? Or should I run dual fuel pumps with dual regulators?

TIA,

Anthony

I like dual pumps. Nitrous fuel pressure is so critical, I hate counting on one pump. If the fuel pressure dips, your motor is dead. To me running oine pump is to inconsistant, mild changes in voltage alnoe can cause a pressure drop.

I would run a pair of Holleys new 150 pumps,

We can do a pair for $400.

or, you can run one of Holley's new billet mechanical pumps on motor and the electric for the nitrous, and spend about $450. I have used 2 of these new billet mechanical pumps on (2) 572 CI / 750 HP motors in different projects and both have done fantasitc, and very painless to install
