I'm going with the blues on mine and I'll be running a carb . I'm going with 2 of them one for the nitrous and one for the motor . I've heard hit or miss on both the holley and aeromotives they both seem to crap out . You could alwaqys step up to a barry grant pump they seem to hold up fairly well .

id like to put a little NOS on it later....would you recommend 2 seperate pumps or 1 big one ??

1 big one is for sure the way to go ! It will be easier to tune with one pump that's for sure . I was actually going to go with one big pump but for my little combo I really didn't need it . It would have been complete over kill . I had a aeromotive A1000 pump and regulator waiting to go on the car but I got convinced by a good friend I didn't need it for my car . Later on when I go with the blow-thru turbo I will have one on the car .

I am running the Summit Black! Supposed to be the same as the Holley Black! More gph than the Holley Blue......Much cheaper too. I've had mine on there going on 2 years now.

We have a Barry Grant hot rod 220 on the chevelle. I do like it but it can get a little costly if you set it up right. the pump its self is not that bad. Its all of the other stuff you have to get for it that adds up. I do think 1 pump is better. you run into problems with the fuel dead heading with a deticated nitrous pump.
