In general most manufacturers will say keep the pump close to the tank with a filter before the pump and the regulator as close to the carb a possible.
I normally use the holley blue for normal street/limited strip cars with -8 or 1/2" fuel lines.
For something a little more serious a Magnafuel Quickstar 300 with -10 fuel lines.
