How good is your fuel pump really?
OK... here is the new flow chart for the pumps. It also has the Bosch "044" in it. I have them displayed on various charts.
Go here:

And click on the tabs at the bottom to go through the sheets. The ones pertinent to this topic are under "Pump HP Cap", "Pump Flows", Injector vs. psi", and "Calculations" tabs at the bottom.
The flow numbers are from RC Engineering, Aeromotive, Independent testing, and Magizine tech articles. They should be accurate. All voltages are at 13.5 volts except the Cosmo which is 13.8 volts. These are the closest voltages to what most people will see. If you hardwire your pump and dont bump yer stereo and such you could see more like 14.2-14.8 volts which would flow more. I am getting too lazy to make another chart with Flow vs. Volts... this should be good enough for people to see.

Bringing all of this up only insulates the fact that EVERYTHING needs to be carefully examined. Fuel line size becomes the next biggest restriction, both feed and return.

When ran parallel, you double the flow.. very simple. Find your fuel pressure and flow for a single pump and double the flow at that pressure.
Now the complicated math portion comes in because of fuel line restriction, turbulence, fuel heating, etc, etc... This is kinda a guestimate but should be close enough for what we use the calculations for.
