Have you read the sticky at the top of this section? Most put the "y" in the tank and join them there, then use stock lines from there on.

I agree on the sticky.Well writen.Unless you are making crazy power then the stock lines will work fine.A lot of people use the stock feed line as a return line and run a new #8 feed line.
Good luck.

looking for 1200 rwhp give or take. The pumps will be Y together inside the fuel pump assembly bucket. I want to run two hot wire kits and a hobbs boost switch. I read somewhere that i need a minimum of -10an. I want to run the two pumps together inside the factory fuel bucket. The lines running to the filter, I think i have two options, buy a -12 stainless line or run some aluminum hard line -10 i think with the correct adapters. Aftermarket fuel filter installed and -12 hose to a aftermarket fuel rail with fuel pressure regulator installed after the rails. I will be running 90lb injectors, high impendence

You're going to need three of those pumps to put down 1200rwhp. And with that much power, I don't think I would risk that set-up with a basic 'baller on a budget' fuel system. You need to get a real set-up. You have to pay to play and at 1200rwhp, you definitely want to play. If you don't, It'll turn into one of those save money now but pay more later things. Good luck with whatever you decide on.

You are not going to make 1200rwhp with the stock tank and dual pumps. The dual setup when done correctly is good to about 1000rwhp. More than that you need a big external pump pulling fuel from a sumped tank. Give me a call we have a system to suit your needs. Including a new tank with builtin internal race pump and filters for very high HP street setups. Extremely new so give me a call for some details.

3 intank pumps inside the 99 up f-body bucket will not fit. I've built triple intank setups, but they require quite a bit of modification work properly.

If you are interested in a complete setup, I can provide everything you need.
I have a few options for intank kits, plus an internal/external combination if you want to go this route.

Seen it done its a PITA as part of it had to be put together in the tank. I have also seen two Bosch 044 pumps with a bulkhead fitting at the back of the tank dual #8 feeds with #10 inlets that looked very promising but I never have tried either of the setups as I haven't had the need yet etc...
