Fuel pickup and lines

Im removing my pump and putting a peice of hose in its place and running new 8an braided to the motor. Do I need to keep all the fuel lines? Obviously I need pressure and return and a vent, but which one? The short section that ends behind the seat or the one that "used to run" to the evap can?

The other question is, I'm shooting for between 650-750hp. Will the stock lines in the tank flow enough fuel? Im using an A1000 pump.

Re: Fuel pickup and lines

i dont think the stock lines can flow enought fuel for that power level... but if you are serious about 650-700 then you would be replacing the stock lines anyways
