Critique fuel system plan for turbo
So I am building a front mount turbo with a stock cube LS1 and a pt76GTS.
Plans
two 255lph walbaros (GSS340)
-8 Fuelab filter
-8 Feed
-6 Return
Fuelab boost referenced regulator
Speed inc fuel rails
Mototron 60# injectors
Hobbs switch
Racetronix wiring harness for 98
So my question I guess it how would you set up the fuel rails. I was going to feed them with -8 hose then Y off into the back of the rails then have the front of the rails come out into each side of the regulator and then -6 down.
The problem and I dont know if Im not looking hard enough but I can't find a regulator for -8 fittings. so would it be bad to reduce down to a -6 fitting at the regulator? or can I take my -8AN line and reduce it down to -6 AN at the back of the fuel rails?

well i guess Im having trouble getting some responses, so I will just ask one more question.
Is there anything wrong with running my rails parallel? Have them y off in the back with a line to each rail then have them meet in the front with a regulator..
