How much HP will the 1st gen piston LP support? I want 350whp on #2 for a DD. I want to keep the whole setup as simple as possible.

You'll want to add high flow banjos from geno's, and 3/8 fuel line down the frame and through the sender to get better flow. 350HP or a little more is the area where you'll likely start run out of fuel pressure on the piston pump mod. It takes plenty of time, money and work to get there so have fun.

I can only get 12PSI@ idle out of mine now. Whole new fuel system going in this spring.

I think you double tapped when you first posted?

Either that or it's a glitch in the matrix warning you that the agents are coming and you should call for an exit...
