Need help with with fuel pump please?

By K-Ski - 03/10/2006 6:40:29 PM; IP 207.68.211.138

I'm building a 390FE with around 350 horse and a 650 carb. All I can find for machanical fuel pumps is a Carter 120 gl with 6psi, & Holley 110gal with around 7psi, both with 1/4" inlet/outlet ports? My fuel line from the fuel tank on my 65 F-100 looks like 1/4" line also!

To me a 1/4" in & out ports, and fuel line is too small for 350 horse, but this is my first FE build up. My gut is telling me to just try the Carter?

Or should I just install new 3/8" line from the fuel tank and go electric pump?

Please can someone help me out with this, I'm lost on what to do with these few options?

Thanks for anyones reply...............K-SKI
