If you can afford it, buy a Magna fuel 500. It's the only pump you will ever need........

A2000 here and have been quite happy with it so far. No problems and data shows it's working fine.

One of those big alky filters the dirt track guys use, has a stainless filter in it but don't remember the brand name. I also filter all the fuel that goes into the tank. If you don't do that, you might be surprised how much crap you catch.

I run an Aeromotive A2000 here no problems what so ever. I run the motor and two stages off of it. I do byspass at the regulator instead of bypasssing at the pump though.

Magnafuel 500 here, no complaints. 522" with 2 stages
I am not really sure what the question is, but I am pretty sure the answer is Big Block.
