Help with BLOW THROUGH CARB setup

[BEATAV8]

Hi Guys,
My buddy and I are putting a wastegated Garret GT3776 on his 350 chevy in an 86 Regal. I need some help selecting a boost referenced fuel pressure regulator and electric fuel pump that will work well with a blow through setup. What's the hot fuel system setup for a blow through carb?

Some of the other basics about the car:
mild 9:1 350, maybe 285 N.A. horsepower. Mild cam, 600CFM Carter, single plane intake manifold, runs well but sort of a pooch.

We plan to run an SMC alky kit, and an e-bay universal front mount intercooler. Targeting 12-15 PSI of boost.

thanks

The Aeromotive stuff is pretty good. I have used both there boost referenced regulator and A-1000 pumps and been happy with them.

Another place to check would Turbomustangs.com There is a wealth of knowledge there on blow through setups.

Haven't posted much but have been lurking around for quite awhile now. I too am doing a blow through set up. Anywayssss, in regards to your question(if its not too late), Use a A2000 Aeromotive. Part #13202 for your regulator. Will end you problems there. As for the pump, I would say that it depends on your target hp numbers. A Aeromotive A1000 pump will flow enough to make upwards of 800 hp. If your going past that maybe a A2000. But your listing above leads me to believe your not looking for huge numbers. Meaning that the 600 holley you mentioned will fall short of 900 hp. I am thinking a #13202 and a A1000 and you'll be good to go. Have fun.

We are using an Aeromotive A 1000 pump and Aeromotive 132-04 regulator
feeding a 750 CSU carb.
