Default Fuel pump/filter/line recommendations

I'm starting to plan out my fuel delivery system and could use some help. I have a -10 AN pickup in my tank, and a -8 AN hard line going from front to rear. So I will need an electric fuel pump (for a carb'd engine, say 650 HP), regulator, and filters.

Based on the work I've done so far, I will go from the tank to a pre-filter, from the pre-filter to my pump, and from the pump to the hard line at the back of the car. In the engine bay, I will go from the hard line to a post filter, then to a regulator, and then to the fuel log connected to the carb.

My questions are:
- What electric pumps, regulators, and filters have people used for this type of application with good results?
- How did you mount the components at the rear, and in the engine bay? Pix would really be appreciated
- What sort of fuel lines? Brand? Teflon, hard, braided?

Any other tips, articles, etc. would be great too. Thanks!
