Default Fuel rails

I want to upgrade my fuel rails to billit rails from fast and get a fpr to match it.. My 01 has 2 lines going to the factory rails and just wondering why it has 2 when i have seen other Gm's with 1, and how i have to hook them up to the new set up..

#1 in the first pic could run out of fuel. At least thats what people say, but I assume it's with a turbo setup or something.

Need a regulator with more ports... #2 in pic 2 is probably what I would go with and have seen a couple of times. Search for fuel regulator here or on ls1tech and you might find some setups. I saw a couple edelbrock pro flo xt ones.
