Default Need advice on fuel set up

I need a little more info than search could provide.

I'm not doing a "budget build" but I don't need to support 2k rwhp. But I need one to support over 900rwhp (which I don't "plan" on getting to )

I have:
(1) 255 walboro in-tank
(1) 255 walboro in-line (needing install)
just bought some -10 AN line for feed. (10ft)
I have the rails from my Vic Jr that I will be using
I have 79# High Impedance Injectors

I need to know what boost referenced regulator you guys recommend and anything else like filters, size of return line and what not.

-Any advice would be helpful

Magnafuel was going to be a choice for me, what about 20-70psi of pressure control? what about the AEM regulator? good... bad?

Another maganafuel regulator... must be a good regulator. Are those boost referenced? My set up will be -10 feed and prob -6 return

I like the hobbs switch idea, prob have the second pump come in around 10psi ( I'm shooting for 15-18psi)

then all of these -AN set ups and regulators seem like a waste of money if your stock set up will do the trick

The -10 is over kill -8 feed MagnaFuel filter/reg and -6 return. And do dual intank pumps the inline external will not help much unless it is in Parallel and you do not have a good way to pull fuel from the stock tank. Give me a call I stock the parts needed and can help you get the correct setup for your needs.
