ouch Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I have on order a carbureted LS 427 from Blueprint and will need an electric fuel pump. Will a Holley Blue pump be enough? Is anyone using this successfully with no return line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Is the engine going to use a carburetor or fuel injection? If carburetor, the blue pump will be fine. If fuel injected, the blue pump will not work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jft69z Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I have used that fuel pump with my carbureted (at the time) LS6 454 engines in both my old Monte & current Z/28. No problems at all, and I also used their fuel regulator to knock down the pressure too.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1of80 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Like Joe stated that pump will work with a regulator. I would also suggest 1/2" fuel line from the tank to the carb to feed the beast if you do not have that already. Also a sump in the tank or the option I took for "Big Red" which is a 1/2" sending unit from RobMC that has an extension towards the back bumper. This way you can run a stock fuel tank. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted November 28, 2023 Author Share Posted November 28, 2023 Thanks. Will do the 1/2". Thanks for the "RobbMc". Spending some money there. On 11/26/2023 at 7:44 PM, MC1of80 said: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
