I would think about upgrading the fuel system before any more mods. That's just me tho'.
(FASS/FASSII/AIRDOG/HOLLEY/CARTER etc. and bigger lines, I believe the AIRDOG kit comes with the lines, or you can purchase something like Scotty's Smart fuel line kit)

Just noticed you have an auto. It doens't appear to be modded (from your sig). Might want to beef that up before a comp and/or injectors.

I'm gonna shred the tranny first, then I'll put in a complete ATS or DTT. I'd rathere completely lose the trans than replace it piece by piece, or worse, a couple of pieces twice or more. I was thinkin about a bigger fuel line though, what has been the best one around for the price? What are the main differences?

Not sure if I am the one to answer "which one is the best" fuel line system.
I have (just received yesterday and not installed) Scotty's Smart fuel system. His website Scotty's Site describes his kit and what the pressure difference was after install (click on the install instructions and scroll to the bottom). Some people use Wildcat Diesel's (now defunct) fuel system, while others put their own together out of -8n hose/fittings. For me, it was just easier to buy in a kit.
If you get the Airdog air/fuel seperator, I believe the fuel line kit is included, that is why the unit is more than the FASS.

Good luck,
~Rob

Scotty's fuel system and stock everything else should easily support 400+hp.

I have no FP issues (can maintain 12psi at WOT) and I'm over 350hp.

No need for extra pumps, heaters, etc until your running a LOT of hp, imho.

Do scotty's max flow kit and then a comp. That'll give you a nice, secure setup. I recommend that you get a permanent fuel pressure gauge though so you can monitor the pump better.
