How much HP mechanical fuel pump can handle??
I have a heavy duty mechanical fuel pump and I'm wondering how much HP it can handle. I'll get around 400HP-420HP NA. Can I spray Wet 100WHP more with this mech pump? I guess my Holley 650DP will be ok.

Mechanical pumps typically flow about 80 gph at 7.5 psi or so. They are generally good to about 600-700 hp. Remember though a mechanical pump is parasitic. It uses hp to run, which is one of the reasons people switch to electric. I don't have a clue about nitrous, hopefully someone else can answer that part.
