Default What HP are the stock fuel lines good to?

I'm just curious what the stock fuel lines are good to on my 95 TA.

really depends on the pump behind it and regulator used....if you have questions feel free to call I will help you get it straight.

Okay, I can accept that the lines are a specific diameter and can flow a specific volume of fuel at a specific pressure, but precisely what does that lead to in terms of horse power? With say twin in tank pumps and a new regulator, what level are we talking about now? is 600 whp out of the question? 700whp? I'd love a more in depth answer than it depends. I tried searching and returned nothing.

700-750 is not usually a problem if you like to do things safely. Above this I am concerned with the fuel line routing/sizing for equal rail flow.
