Hi,
Do I need high high volume/performance stuff (oil/fuel pump) on my 440 magnum build (holley 750 vacuum, edelbrock performer 440, 906 heads, XE268 comp cam and speed pro L2355 pistons). Or is stock/regular pumps enough?

Thanks!

IMO  what do you risk by adding HD units ?

Sorry for being a stingy fellow ;)
I'll buy the heavy duty stuff then...

Do you guys recommend a converter who stall a little more than stock to a combo like that? I have TTI headers, 4.10 sure grip axel and the engine combo as above.

hmmmm     i'm sure Ron will chime in because he knows more about these things than I do...    but IMO I think the stock convertor will be fine - maybe go to a 2600 unit ? 

The HV water pump will be a nice addition for a street car...    HV oil pumps go on all my engine builds just for the added insurance...     and we all know mopars are thirsty so I would get a nice carter fuel pump.

I have to agree with the others....HV oilpump is a good addition along with a 6qt hemi oilpan and windage tray.  :2thumbs:

With that engine combo and cam profile i would look at the Turbo Action 11in "Hemi" torque converter.  :icon_smile_big:
