upgrade fuel lines?
i am in the process of getting my car ready for a 355(400 hp) tpi swap. it curentlly has a 305 tpi and i know i have to upgrade the stock fuel pump. i was going to go with a walbro. but what i am unsure about is do i need to upgrade my stock fuel lines? i think they are in good shape but that new pump will flow alot more volume than the stocker.
-all your help is greatly appreciated as this is my first engine swap and im doing all the work myself in my driveway!

Stock line will easily support that much as is.

I have the Holley 255 in tank pump and the stock lines on my car.
It is enough to power a 406 with about 500 HP at the crank all the way up to 7000 rpms without running out of fuel.....
just some food for thought on how adequate the stock lines are.
