No, not standard! I went over what I was wanting to do with there engineer and this is what we came up with. IMSA, Nascar and Arca use a similar set of lift pumps as well with the EFI setups.

I am turbocharged, so I built an engine capable of a sustained 1800 HP for Bonneville and Mile events. It will NEVER see that on the street or road course/autoX. I can "adjust" the output between about 550-1100 for different venues. This is one of the reason my car is a bit of a pig. Aside from needing a beefier cage, the driveline has to handle the top power level, so much heavier components are needed for more than just a road course/autoX car.
