It's a decent deal. You sure couldn't piece all that together new...heck..just price out the braided line and fittings. It should support 600-700rwhp pretty easy. I have pretty much the same setup on my coupe feeding my nitrous 347 motor. What turbo kit (size turbo) are you going with?

ah..ok...going on a stock block 302 combo? That fuel system will supply way more hp than a stock block will hold.

I here the aeromotive's are loud and don't like to much street use. I went with this but just bought the tank since I already had a partial system. http://www.glennsperformance.com/product_info.php?cPath=24&products_id=61

It starts all over again:)
Stock block may last a little while at that hp limit...but it's a grenade with the pin pulled. It's gonna blow..just don't know when.

for a grand your probably not that far off from piecing together a new system. problem with a used system is will you route it the same way as he had or will you need more fittings and possibly a longer hose in certain areas. is it possible he damaged any fittings or are parts of the hose damaged from rubbing anything. That pump is also not real good with that pickup tube, you will need to sump it or plan on getting a different pump as many plumbed that way have failed. I also had a bad experience from buying a pump on line before as well. It was partly my fault as i waited a fewmonths after receiving it to have it flow tested to only find out at 10 psi it was leaking out the case. long story short I got the shaft on getting a refund. A fuelsystem can be unforgiving to every part under the hood. buy from someone you trust with your engine or go new
