Default Please criticize my fuel setup before i order everything !!!

Here is what im planning on doing for my fuel setup.Will be close if not over 4 digits hp.I already got some parts but before ordering the rest i would like serious opinions .

Base feed system that will support normal drive and up to 4 psi of boost:

Walbro (LPE) GRJ420 (already installed)
Normal fuel filter and capped return (already installed)
Stock line
Quick connect 3/8 stock line to -8 an(already installed)
-8 an check valve
-8 an "Y"
-8an line to each fuel rail using - 8 an femele swivel on the run, connected to 90 degree side

Power support @ 4psi + activated by a 4psi hob switch

ECS fuel ring (-10an feed/- 8 an return)(already got it)
-12 an fuel feed line to filter
-12 an filter (Fuel lab 3 inch 75 micron ss material):81824-C 75 micron stainless steel
-12an line filter to pump
Magnafuel 4303 pump rear inner fender install(already Got it)
-10 an line from pump to filter
-10 an filter (Fuelab 3 inch 40 micron): 81813-C 40 micron stainless steel filter
-10 an line to front inner fender check valve
-10 an check valve to "Y"
-10 an "Y"
-8 an feed line to each fuel rail connected to -8an swivel on the run, connected to 180 degree/straight end to get perfect flow

Return:

-6 an line from each rail to each side of the FPR
Fpr Aeromotive #13132 boost reference connected (huge overkill FPR)(already Got it)
-8 an return line frpm FPR to fuel ring return port.


Do i use 3" or 5 " pre pump fuel filter (space issue)
Do i use 3" or 5" after pump fuel filter (again space issue)
Should i do -8 an return @ fuel rail instead of -6 an ???
Any rear inner fender pics of what it looks like to give me the idea of how i should connect everything ???

Im open to everything ,feel free to add any comment

Thanks

Get two new fuel pump assembly gaskets for the ESC ring. The o-rings and grooves are challenging and needed to be siliconed in for assembly in my case, especially if you are installing with the fuel tank and a-arms in place.

Replacing the o-rings with another FP gasket is the way to go.

Ok lets make it even more simple since im pretty confident about the setup:

Do i use 3" or 5 " pre pump fuel filter (space issue)
Do i use 3" or 5" after pump fuel filter (again space issue)
Should i do -8 an return @ fuel rail instead of -6 an ???
Any rear inner fender pics of what it looks like to give me the idea of how i should connect everything ???

Thanks

magnafuel recommends a 74 Micron pre and 25 Micron post pump filters for the 4303.

also don't think you need a -10 after the pump. are you on e85?

use the largest filter you can.

-6 will be fine on gas, I would go -8 if on e85

Well didnt even think abput looking for filter on magnafuel website...
They offer a 150 micron -12 an prepump(only -12 an option) and the 25 micron -10 an afterfilter.

Im on pump gas only(canadian) but i like to have room to grow so -10an feed will be...The only reason im feeding the pump with -12 an is because magnafuel recommend one size bigger on the inlet pump size.

-Any downside of running -8 an both rail return ???

Thanks for the input.
