For a 351w motor, is the stock fuel lines enough, i am running a 255lph in tank, 42#injectors and a AFPR. Do I need to upgrade the rails and lines and if so, what size, by who, and where is the best prices for them???????

if anything your fuel injectors might be a bit to big. but thats why we have a thing called tuning.
your fuel lines will need to be upgraded once you hit around 500 i think

Well maybe knowing my setup will help!

I have a CHP 357w, 11:1, TEA stage3 AFR 185's, custom cam, Edelbrock victor 5.8, LT,42#, 75mm Tbody, 80mm Pro-M, AFM powerpipe, NX 150shot. That should cover the basics for you guys. Is my current fuel system enough? [Eek!]

Your stock lines and rails will most likely not be enough on the NX 150 shot. I'd upgrade them and run (2) Walbro GSS392 inline pumps with a Granatelli pickup tube.
