Default STS and return fuel system

Ok, I have an 01 Silverado, someone correct me if I am wrong, but it has a return line on the fuel system. Now, whats the best way to make sure I have plenty of fuel going to my engine for the STS kit? I have never really looked into a boosted return fuel system...Someone help.

5/11 for now, then I will be going up to 9/15 when I get a new daily beater...right now the truck is stock 5.3 with a built trans and 3k stall, gonna be running an STS 60-1 with a pretty big FMIC, Water/Meth, and and electronic boost controller
I will probably do midlengths if I can find some on a deal, and I will eventually be running a race bullet off the "down pipe"

Don't run water -- use 100% meth and tune for it.

42's should be enough with a pump.
