Looks good, just make sure you know what size lines you want to run. How about a pre-filter before the pump?

Are you going for 1000rwhp? If not, may be a bit overkill...

Well my plan is 850rwhp, and i have a lot of room to spare. The turbo can produce as much as 1200rwhp and my engine can handle it. 850rwhp is just a starting #.

yes that is the way fuel systems run.

it will do you a lot more help to nail down what all fittings you need to make the connections and a conservative amount of hose

sump>stump

in case you are on a budget it will save you at least a hundred bux to not y the fuel to the rails and y it back together, and do a single crossover instead.
