Default Best mechanical fuel pump?

Plan on upgrading my fuel systems since I now have 871 blowers. My 540's had 177 weiand blowers with holley 110gph pumps and -6 line. I plan on upgrading to -8 line and bigger pumps for the 871s. Engines should make around 800hp when fitted with the bigger blowers. What does everyone recommend? I was looking at the KE performance pump on CP performance, edelbrock and holley pumps. Not opposed to going electric but would like to stay with mechanical. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I was considering -10 also if that's the better route
