Question fuel system filtration and pump questions!????

Ok, been reading a bunch of stuff on this. I am gonna do a water/fuel seperation before the stock pump. And a cat 2 micron filter between the stock filter and the cp3, I was thinking of doing the holley black pump, I wanna do an efficient but cost effective way to have a pump and filter setup. I already know how ill do the filtration. But I need ideas and info on the pump, should I run it in conjunction with the stock pump, or bypass that? Or is there another real good pump, or maybe replace the stocker with another? Any ideas would be great, thanks!!!

Yeah I know that and the fass does but I can build one for half that price. I don't have a huge budget right now and need to do it soon.

read my post #82 on page 6

I detail everything you need to know about getting rid of that pesky stock lft pump and running holleys.

You can make a pump block-off plate like one I did.

Well I can build the same thing for half the price, that's why I don't buy a complete setup already.

Also wondering on the water/fuel seperator is it better to push the fuel through, or pull it through?? Was reading somewhere one of those is better cause of water emulsion.

Whoops, didn't realize I responded to the same one twice. Ok ill check it out better tmrw, I'm on my blackberry now. I did see pics of the twin holleys, very very nice, what about a T from the tank feeding them separate? And then coming back into a T after? Or is it kinda all the same? How reliable are the holleys?? Right now I'm pushing out 440hp, and yet to add the smarty, should that be fine for the holley?
