You'd lose power if the valve springs begin playing up and also there are many FG's which are reliable for that power Internal wise but the common things that can happen is flex plate becoming loose and factory intercooler pipes splitting all which can be fixed to not happen again.

I have decided to have the valve springs replaced. What is the cost to have a fuel pump fitted with the tune roughly? I can buy the Walbro GSS 341 for $120 but what is the costs on average to have this all fitted? And what sort of advantages do you think it will give me?

Your going to have to ask the shop that's doing it and also they will be tuning it so ask them if your going to need a fuel pump or not and if you will get any benefits with an upgrade at your power level. I think most likely they will only want to fit the fuel pumps they provide.

Big rob will have it covered mate I reckon 310-320rwkw.

my box is stock standard with soft shifts and runs 415rwkw-470rwkw everyday depending on the fuel I whack in it, its all about how you drive it. I do the odd power slide in 2nd-3rd cause I have goony tyres, so I get a bit of fun in aswell.
