Default boosted camaro

I have a carburated sbc chevy twin turbo setup I built. I have a 750 holley blow thru carb, and a boost refrenced mechanical fuel pump. I am not getting enough fuel after about 3800 rpm, I think it is to lean. I am looking for some info on what kind of pump to run.

How do you know you're not getting enough fuel? do you have a wideband, not too many people on here will be able to help you. once you start talking carbs we go durrrrrrrrr, my advice would be to give it more cowbell

isnt a 96 mpfi, why rip out such a beautiful thing?

take a visit to www.turbomustangs.com and www.thirdgen.org

trust me on those sites as they will be all you need to help yourself. i had once planned to boost my TA but a overall comparison of a boosted TA to a boosted honda, i decided to go with honda for gas millage and longevity. if you have any more questions please feel free to ask.

I've seen setups that ran an addtional inline pump that was activated during boost with a hobbs switch. Oddly enough, they were usually fuel injected, but mainly for noise control. IIRC, the 300zx (maybe poopra) run the pump at low voltage for vacuum, and high voltage for boost. Maybe add an electric pump inline and a hobbs swithc to activate it. I know nothing about rigging non-injected cars, so take it with a grain of salt :P
