Will an aeromotive 340 be enough for 650rwhp?

Mike, I wouldn't turst the aeromotive 340. It's supposedly good to more than 650 rwhp but I started PM'ing people who bought them (I couldn't find info any other way) and everyone who responded said the pump didn't last long. Here's probably the most descriptive response I got...

"Well, my builder put in the AM340 for me back in March. It took a shit in September. Just started dying on me. I talked to Lonnies Performance about them and they said that they have only had bad reports about them. They do not recommend the Aeromotive 340. Also, I kept getting some sort of vapor lock with it. Lonnies said that this was a frequent issue with them..."

I doubt it. Thats a lot to ask from any single intank pump IMO. Go to duals or a big external single now.

Got the bird, 5.3, and all the random parts home. Thanks Dustin. Now to get the HuronSpeed turbo kit home and let the fun begin. After adding up the parts list i doubt the car will make it out this summer unless i win the lotto. I know i can make up some cash by selling what i dont need

all you will need is an LS2 timing chain mike. thats all i run and you will be perfectly fine

[Nocooler]

After doing some reading I went with the LS2 timing set due to function and price. PM me if you're interested in details. I'm using the Melling hi pressure pump.

LS2 chain is nice for the money.

I wouldn't go double roller unless your running some really nasty springs and cam.

Slp should fit. Comes with shims, bolts and the pump is diff. Stock pump would need some grinding on the cover , bolts and shims

nothing besides more money. its not a racecar, just a streetcar

What's wrong with a roll bar? Should have sat in my car with it......or better yet Jim's he has swing outs. Unless your carting midgets around the back seat is worthless.

nice! gonna have to pull it and take it back into work and have it swapped out. or i may just have to hold out for a bit as something else is in the works. car might not make it out next year so i have a little bit of time to make it right. still not going with a cage so my options may be a little slim. thx mike!
