hp is going to be between 600-700hp would you recommend the 1000cc or higher injectors. I have search and I just kinda wanna see some recent setups and what they are running. So I know about the big Red search button.

i can't give any opinions/experience on the fuel pumps you listed but...
you'll most likely max out your stock fuel lines soon after 600ish whp. a walboro 255 and 1000cc injectors can get you that far

i have the Aeromotive A1000 and i love it. i have't been able to really do anything yet cause i'm breaking my motor in but i've heard good things abt it. also not sure how worried you are abt noise but its pretty loud. not crazy loud but loud enough to hear it while idleing with an open header.

probably going to get the aeromotive need a good fuel pump. What about driving for a while with the aeromotive is it hard on the pump cause of constantly pumping fuel through it at the same rate of speed with out the fuel pump controller cause that's all I noticed about the sx and the Weldon is they don't need to have a fuel pump controller you can drive a distance and not have to worry (kinda like me driving to Seattle from where I am 292miles)

kind off topic but.... do fuel pumps gradually lose thier pump pressure? like do they get weaker and weaker over time until they finnaly stop working?
