Optimum Set-up; What's the best way to set up my pedals?

Hi all. I've currently added a few new items to my current set-up but I'm at a bit of a loss to know what order to put them in. My pedal list is as follows:

Vox V847 Wah
Boss TU-2 Chromatic Tuner
Blackstar HT-Drive
Blackstar HT-Boost
(Boss AC-2 Acoustic Simulator - occasionally)
(Boss DS-1 Distortion - occasionally)

Any tips would be much appreciated :)

If it helps, I'm running my gear through a Fender Deville 4x10 Valve amp, with either a Fender USA Deluxe Stratocaster (Alder body) and a Fender USA Ash Telecaster (Ash body).

I look forward to hearing your advice!

Ideally, I would put a Wah in the effects loop. Thats just me though.

you may find that putting the wha after the overdrive units would yield a better sound otherwise Roast has a good layout for you.
and now for something completely different

Erm, I placed the Wah after the overdrive. Sounds better thru effects loop, but if you cant/dont want to, then leave it at the end of the pedal chain.
