450HP at engine or wheels?
Ive seen 450HP at engine with AN6. It wouldnt hurt to go AN8 though as your more then likely going to be chasing more power later on, then its already there ready to go.

If your going to run -8 the whole system needs to be -8, you cant run -6 from the rear and just convert to rails with -8, the max it will flow is what the -6 allows.
If I were you I would go -8 the whole system, do it once and be done with it.

Looks a bit stupid with all the adaptors and flow would only be what the -6 (3/8") fuel line is capable of flowing, in that case better sticking with -6 the whole way or get new billet rails and -8.

well i didnt want to pull the tank right yet so i wanted to just get it running for now. My plan was to use the corvette regulator for now and run from that to the rail using OEM 3/8" line then 6an to rail. Eventually id go w/ 8an feed and 6an return but i just want to get her running for now

To get it running, there's nothing wrong with doing that. In fact, I'll be using the factory lines for a little bit myself. But, I'm already planning -8 in and -6 back to the tank.
