magnafuel Prostar 500- will it support a 1250 cfm carb 300 fogger and 200 plate on a 598?

Yep. Just make sure the feed line and return are big enough. 10/12 and 8

Should be more than enough fuel pump.

I installed one on a chebby friend's car with both a 500"/2 dommy tunnel ram/single fogger combo, and a 700"/2 dommy tunnel ram/3 stage nitrous combo (3rd stage not used). The MF-500 worked great with both engine combos.

If you plan on using Holley regs with the MF-500 pump, and it's a front mounted fuel cell, you might need to turn down the pump pressure/volume a little to keep the Holley regs from creeping. If you spring for the high dollar Magnafuel regs they should be good at the higher pump pressures even with a front mounted fuel cell.

^^^^ true story regarding the the regulators. I had to do it with the Holley stuff as well. A few years ago I switched to MF regs and still had to back the pump output pressure down a bit

Guys if I were you anytime you from mount one of these big pumps I would lower pump pressure. We sell and use MF pumps as well. We normally set up or PR 500 if we know they are going to be front mounted with a lower pressure spring in the poppet from the start. It doesn't matter who's regs your using the lower pressure will be easier for the regs to control.

If using a MF two port reg for nitrous you'll have to by pass fuel to try and settle it down. They do not dead head well either.. If mine I use a Holley for the nitrous and a MF for carb.. SJ
