Now a dual pump in-line setup may give you problems with 550 RWHP.

Im not saying that he is skimping Im just saying that i built a returnable system, because if I left the $l60e in Id be around 700 rwhp. So I went with the speed inc tank and all the goodies to support the FAST system.

Re: Beyond 550rwhp - Help With Fuel System
There are several options. My opinion is if you are going to go into fuel system mods you may as well do it right the first time.
I would do:
one of two options:
Dual 340's intank
larger than stock send line into Y-block feeding both sides of the rail (requires modified rails)
Dual lines off the front of the rails into Y block into boost referenced AFPR.
Back into braided return line back to tank
Or:
Sumped tank with large external pump
larger than stock send line into Y-block feeding both sides of the rail (requires modified rails)
dual lines off the front of the rails into Y block into boost referenced AFPR.
Back into braided return line back to tank
Either of those options will support a ton of power. It will also look great with the braided lines up front too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Make sure your return line is big enough or you can overwhelm the return with the pressure/volume from the pump(s) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Cheers,
Chris

Re: Beyond 550rwhp - Help With Fuel System
Do you guys think I would be safe w/my current fuel setup..
42LB injectors, 255 inline, 255 intank, when I do get a new motor it will be stock block stock crank...will this be enough?

I don't know... it seems it would.
If it is a guage, my stock in-tank and the Aeromotive A1000 in-line was enough for my stocker running 10 PSI of boost.
Hope that helps.
