Default fuel system for turbo 5.3

Okay, I'm new with all this ls stuff. I've been stone cold lt1 for years and finally making the swap to a turbo 5.3 setup. Going to use stock ls1 intake and I will get aftermarket fuel rails but I'm ready to buy my fuel system and my tuner says magnafuel 750 with 80# injectors which is fine by me but when I looked them up it seems all of that is for an efi setup. I'm wanting to keep it the stock intake. As long as I get the rails will this fuel system work on an otherwise stock setup? I will have it tuned on speed density and my goal is 700rwhp. Any advice on this would be appreciated. Open to ideas.

Kinda confused me a little but you can use the stock intake with aftermarket fuel rails. Then run -8 an line from the pump to the rails with a -6 return line to the tank.
