Ok guys i have been here long enough to know that bigler lines on an auto will prrttymuch suck at dd..

Im geting a dragonfire later on and im thinking of puting .120 lines. I will have a high stall converter.
Is that possible? This truck will not get plated to go on streets..

Nah dont do it.
High hp vp trucks are a balancing act between pressure and flow.
I assume you are going to go with large injectors so there is your flow along with the new pump.
I have heard of power loss due to going with .093 lines.
But its your call, just dont think there will be any benifit, except lope lol

And for the record 7x 12s are not what i would consider large

i'm not trying to be an a** but that looks like a statement. from what you have written on here before all your goals can be achieved with some fairly basic parts.

From what I have read and my own experiences regarding the dragonfire, the lines are not needed.

Tubes yes, but not the lines.

I am running stock lines and .093 tubes with my DF pump. This was with 7x18 and now 6x13 injectors. No issues.

Just my .02

750 can and has been done on an SO pump.
Stock undrilled tubes have done 1000.

Can you do it, sure.
will you gain anything, very doubtful.
