    I have a car that ran High 10s in nolble olk these last year.shooting for some high 10s in colorado these year on the motor and 9s on the on the gas hear. My buddy runs Magna Flow in Colorado Springs. I just purchased 500 pump from him going to go with a number 10 line from the tank to the front of the car and a 8 return. Write now i have a 220 bg pump with a 8 feed and a 6 return. Any feed back would be grate. Keep those Buicks flying high hopefully in a short time we will see that aftermarket blocks out 500+ motors sound grate to me that you can put the hammer down and not be scared that motor is going to come apart.:3gears: :TU:

    Your fuel line choice sounds like it will be more then enough. I've been running a Barry Garnt 400 and making over 1200hp with the same fuel line running up to the motor.

    Choices....

    I run a Barry Grant 400 for both motor and nitrous feeding from the back of the car with #10 line to two regulators. THe first is the nitrous regulator that is a 6 port Aeromotive with a #8 going out the other inlet to a 3 port Barry Grant regulator that feeds the carb. Its fairly simple and it has worked for me with no problems. I've sprayed over 300 hp shot nitrous without the safety switch having to activate, so the system is holding good pressure with alot of demand.
    If you want to run a seperate fuel system for the nitrous you should consider a 1 gallon fuel cell up front. Its alot less line and its better for keeping the fuel pressure consisant and the launch. You can run a cheep Holley Blue pump or something small since it will not be fighting the forces of the launching and going down the track. Just something to consider.
