13bt,fuel solutions

i have just fitted a 13bt street-ported on my fb.now i'm working on fuel system.so i want to know what fuel pump should i need.i've ordered an in-line electric which promises to be a 500hp pump.but later i found out that it's a 43gph at 40psi pump.could it be efficient for a street-ported 13b with t04 turbo and 800cc secondary injectors?
do you know where i can find a surge-tank and a low pressure pump to feed it?

low pressure in, high pressure return from fuel rail and over flow back to the fuel tank.

Im running a custom surge tank. My low pressure pump is a 100gph carter carb pump. My high pressure pump is a bosch but I forget the part #. The MSD pump you orderd is a walbro I belive. I cant remember exactly but I think that pump is putting out the same GPH at the same PSI as a stock 3rd gen pump. That will give you a good idea of how much HP its good for. Its a good thing you are getting a surge tank. I did not have one at first and my car surged terribly at anything less than half a tank of gas.

may i use the msd for feeding the surge tank and buy an even bigger pump for the fuel rail?
i mean,is there any problem to use also a high pressure pump to feed the tank?
in the ajc13b's tank style,what is the purpose of the hole on the top and what of each one on the upper of the sidewall?

Nope, I did not want any hoses hanging under the car to draw attention. That probally would have been easier than running everything for the surge tank.
