help with new build

I am setting up a new 150g. tank. Its 4'x2'x30". my original plan was to put everything under the stand. I drilled 4 holes across the top for a 32" overflow with 1" bulkheads and 2 holes for return lines with dual locklines. after seeing some other setups I've decided to put the sump and fuge in the basement. I will be using a 100g rubbermaid tub and a 55g for the fuge.now there will be about 12' of head which changes my plans.I was recommended to use a sequence barracuda pump for the return. will my overflow be adequate or should I drill more holes, possibly bigger holes. I was also thinking of making a manifold to add more return options. any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also I haven't made the overflow box yet. thanks matt
