In nearly every scenario when I've been involved with a decent running street car, they've benefitted from 1/2" line and a good pump feeding it. Surprising the amount of people that spend a bunch of money on engines, worry about the HP they make, then skimp on the fuel delivery system. We've all done that, myself included. I quickly found decades ago as power level keeps increasing the fuel delivery becomes a key player. These days right off the bat I just spend the money and shoot for an in tank pump and 1/2" lines and call it done so I never have to revisit it again as the car evolves further.

A LOT OF TRUTH AND EXPERIENCE IN THAT POST.
I KNOW TANKS, OFFERS A "TRAP DOOR" YOU CAN ADD TO YOUR FUEL TANK (to service a failed fuel pump) BUT I JUST SET UP
MY FUEL SYSTEM WITH A PRIME FUEL PUMP AND A BACK-UP FUEL PUMP ON THE FUEL PUMPS FUEL PUMP MOUNTING COVER.
Food for thought there people.
