Let's say that we're going to use MY car for an EFI swap. Feel free to post links to good sites, completed Ebay auctions, etc...
What do we need for a fuel pump?
One pump or two?
What are the options?
What are the costs?
What about surge tanks?
What about hoses / lines? Alternatives?
Fuel tank change required?
Are factory 5.0 fuel rails adequate?
What size fuel injectors?
What else do we need?
COSTS????

Tech article on fuel delivery. Apparently stock rails are good up to 450hp with an adjustable regulator and a larger pump and recommend 1/2 " braided steel fuel line. 3/4 down the page.
