Default New Fuel System, Need some input

Ok im looking at upgrading my fuel system. As of right now i have 42lb injectors and a 255 intank pump. Stock lines and half inch fuel rails. also have a boost a pump. Should i buy a full fuel system? do you guys think the stock lines will hold up to 5-600hp? Just want to know if i should just put a regulator and a in line pump with bigger fuel lines on or buy a whole new kit. Kits are looking around 9-1200dollers.. Thats rediculous, when i can peice togather a kit for 5-600dollers, maybe not all aermotive or somthin of that. But like a bbk inline or vortec inline 255 bigger fuel lines and a regulator would work right?

I would not trust the stock lines to much more then 500 hp I used a in-tank pick up ran 10an line to the aeromotive pump then the pump to filter then 8an to the rails then 8an from rail to rail and then 8an to the regulator then 6an back to the tank. I would just peice together a kit like you said.
