Holley blue - how many amps??

The scotty smart fuel system & the Holley blue. Stock fueling it pulling the pressure down to 11lbs. I don't think its going to be up to the task of supporting the mods to come. So I'm looking into an alternative pump. The Holley is powered buy the stock wiring, my question is, how many amps will the stock truck wiring be able to handle??? The pump I'm looking into will pull between 5 & 6 amps. Is the stock wiring adequate??

The Blue pulls right at 4 amps. Reinstall the stock LP and run the fuel through the blue and through the stocker. It'll be plenty of fuel for all the power you can make. I get a min of 16 psi at full tilt with mine.

The stock wires are very small 18 gauge, so 6 amps would be a lot for them. Use a relay to power it and trigger it with the stock wire.
