How big fuel lines for 700 whp E85?
How big fuel lines for 700 whp E85? As topic, how big fuellines do I need for a turbo 5.3 lm on E85 do I need?
Im think about an8 as feed line and an6 for return, would that be enough?

rule of thumb is generally E85 flows or requires 30% more fuel to make equivalent power as on pump.
i would recommend -10 for supply and -8 for return... make sure pump is large enough and clean injectors and rebuild pump annually..

I would strongly disagree with this. I have 6-700whp 1300cc turbo motorcycles using -6 feed and return on E85. -8 is plenty to do the job anything less then 1100hp.

you can make over 700rwhp on e85 with the stock rails AND lines in a fbody. Been done countless times. But yes a -8 would be MORE then sufficient to get to your power goals depending on your injectors.
Thanks guys sounds great 
first I thought about dual aem 320 in tank. But the car will be used also for drift and track so I'm thinking about a walbro 450 in tank (maybe a aem 320 would be enough?) to a surge tank and then two external pumps from surge to fuelrail. No idea if its best choice to use twins or one big single like a magnafuel 4301.
