I am making around 425 rwhp with my current set-up with a pretty conservative tune and pulling out a lot of timing with my BTM. I'm concerned that my fuel system is not quite good enough. I'm running a 255lph in-tank pump, a T-Rex inline pump, stock lines and rails, 42lb injectors, Kirban fpr. I'm debating whether I need to upgrade my lines / rails. What are you guys running? A friend suggested that I upgrade my feed line to 6an (3/8) instead of the stock 5/16.

My car is carbed N/A making 581/539 flywheel. Not a good comparison, but I run a -10 feed and -8 return. I have a friend (dont we all) with a efi T-trimmed 331 that made 540rwhp, he runs the aeromotive deal with the A1000 pump, -8 feed, and -6 return (i think the return is -6?). If you are going to go through the trouble of changing, go with -8.
Mike.
