Default Lq4 truck with returnless???

Ok im kinda dumb founded here and trying to figure out how i should go about this, With the returnless system on the truck since i have no pump no regulator or anything? looking at just switching to ls1 intake and fuel rail setup right away? justs seems like yes it will cost more but i have everything to convert the front drives to fit it and seems like it may be less of a headach. any recommnedations or what have you guys done in past for this?

Switching to an LS1 intake probably wont help you since most of them use the returnless rail also. Just get a corvette filter/regulator and a high pressure pump like a Walbro255 and be done with it.

I have truck return style rails if you want.

Ls1 intake you need to cut and move idler pulley, clearance throttle body with water pump, wire in EV1 injector connectors, need ls1/ls6 injectors.
