Default Inline + Intank Pumps = ?

i currently have a walboro 255 fi intank pump installed right now. Would i benefit if i used a inline pump in conjunction w/ the walboro? Should i do it?

What method of fuel control are you using, FMU or ECU?

you would benefit if you are currently going over 100 psi. The benefit would be safety.

i'm using an FMU
Those walbro pumps will go bad with 100+psi for extended periods. I burned out a 317 running 90psi for 5 months when i had my JRSC. If you have the 342 you'll still burn it out running 110+psi, which I would assume you are doing. You have a Drag with a 12:1 rise rate, right?

Yes, i do have a drag. I don't know if they are any different from each other, but i have a Holley FI 255 pump, not a walbro (i typed walbro before by mistake). So, what are you saying? Should I ditch the intank and stick with the airtex inline? Or should i keep both?

its the exact same pump. If you boost with that for say the length of the 1/4 it will most likely start leaning out at the end. I would just keep both. That is how i had mine setup, and it worked fine.
