But I need a plan first...i don't know what lines need to b replaced fir the big line kit..and I'm kinda clueless on the draw straw...any help would b great

use the draw straw V from vulcan that way you wont have problems when you get blow 1/4 tank of fuel, it goes inside your factory fuel cup in the sending unit. not just into the tank like the AD draw straw that comes with the kit.

the AD150 should come with all the lines and fittings to go all the way to the VP

The dsv is an awesome upgrade for the fuel basket. I've never had an issue with low fuel since I added one.

I have had 0 issues running stock fuel tube with my truck. I guess I am lucky then. So I would say only change it if your getting rid of in tank fuel pump

I'm running a vulcan draw straw, 5/8 diameter to 1/2 inch fuel lines. I put mine in the tank just forward of the sending unit, I used 2 quarters, put them on the bottom of the tank and set the pipe to touch them and then cut the pipe to that length and removed the quarters, I've pulled 60% slopes and and in 3 years that its been in, I've never once had a 1/4 tank issue.
