Aftermarket Fuel Rails?

So I took the car out yesterday & it ran real good.. It still needs a tune but I'll have to get it done later. Today I pulled off my Anderson ported Cobra upper & lower & I'm going to install a new polished Holly Systemax I picked up dirt cheap. I'm running 42lb injectors & an Aeromotive reg. (on stock rails). So since I have it all yanked out... I'm thinking about buying new rails. Are there any rails out there that I can use my new rail mount regulator on?

BTW.. Isn't the stock rail good for 400 or 450hp??

Thanks
Carl

I've seen stock rails handle 500+ rwhp.

Good to know.. I don't see myself hitting 500hp on this setup anyway.

Thanks
