Joey,
you have to plan your fuel system for your over all power goal and what fuel you intend on using.....
here is a quick run down of what i would do......
100PSI base fuel pressure
weldon and/or fuelab fuel pressure regulator
dual bosch 044 pumps
ID1000cc injectors
-8 feed
-6 return
inlinepro or fullblown fuel rail
***should support 800whp on gasoline and 650ish on E85***
43.5PSI base fuel pressure
your choice of fuel pressure regulator
dual bosch 044 pumps
2000cc injectors
-8 feed
-6 returnshould
inlinepro or fullblown fuel rail
***should support 900+whp on gasoline and 800ish on E85.***
or run the FB dual walbro setup, with upgraded fuel lines and all, should support 900+ whp on gasoline and 2000cc injectors also......

You can get everything you need from summit (minus the fuel inline pro rail). They carry aem ones though...
They carry aluminum -6 and -8 lines though you'll have to look under 3/8" and 1/2" respectively. I'd get 15' so you have plenty left over if you screw up your bends. You'll end up using around 4' in each direction.
Get the tubing bender and cutter at lowes/home depot if you don't already have one. They are overpriced at summit. Make sure you get a cutter that has a reamer built it. If you modify/dremel the stock fuel line brakets you shoud be able to keep the oem fuel line covers. I had no problem with the -6 line. -8 will require more trimming of the brackets.
Hose and fittings:
If you have money to burn and want the bling, you can get the braided nylon but it's way overkill. Their push on hose is plenty adequate and considerabley cheaper. If you're really worried about blowing off the fittings, you can get the one use clamps from fragola. They work great. From the gas tank to the hard line I used around 18". You WON'T be able to follow the stock lines. There's not enough room. I routed them to the left of the fuel tank and followed the frame.
I used around 2.5' of hose on the engine side and pretty muched followed the oem layout.
Fittings are where you're $$ will be spent. Regarding the hard lines you need 4 -an to tube fitting adapters. I went with all male adapters so you'll need all female adapters for your hose and I think it's easier to work with female fittings on the hoses when torqueing down. You'll need ten. Four for the tank side; two by the fuel pump assembly and two to the hardlines. Six fittings are needed for the engine side; two for hard line to rail, two for rail to fpr, and two for fpr to return hard line. Of all the fittings, I only needed two 45 degree ones. I'd get at least that and an extra strait one. You'll curse yourself if you misplace one and for 5 bucks, it's a drop in the bucket for the budget for this thing.
Your fpr and rail should come with all necessary -an fittings and adapters.
If you're curious how this looks I have a post showing mine, however I used -6 for supply (I don't anticipate needing more) and kept the stock fpr.

Here's a link to my thread. It has the whole setup which includes, besides the fuel setup, my attempt at an air/water bump in efficiency. Still haven't got tuned. I'm debating on picking up the 928 racing impeller upgrade and doing a simple comparison. If I get a shift of overtime, I'll probably do it.
