Default Fuel help

As I start to get going on my build, i am starting to see that I still need to figure out what I'm doing with my fuel setup. My end goals are to be in the 600rwhp through a stall'd auto just to give an idea of what type of fuel setup I will need. It is return style, considering its 1997 Mustang GT. I currently already have:

Siemen Dieka EV1 60# injectors
Edelbrock High Flow Fuel Rails
Walbro 255lph intank fuel pump (already have from previous setup)


now, I understand I still need to do some fuel mods and that fuel is one area not to cheap out on. Considering what I have already, what all else do you recommend on me doing?

another walbro pump so i have a twin walbro setup?
change my tank to sump or sleeper tank?
10an line?
fuel pressure regulator?

I have a 97 tank so your setup could be similar to mine. I have a Granatelli pickup with 2 external Walbro pumps. Also, aftermarket fuel rails (UPR, about the only thing they make that's decent) -10 AN feed (gives me room to grow) and -6 AN return and also have a Paxton external fuel regulator. It got kinda pricey with all the fittings but you gotta pay to play. Stick with AN fittings if possible. Some folks will use their stock fuel rails but I say don't push it especially at 600+rwhp
