Fuel Line Size At Tank, Gonna pull it today Options

[Allan]

I've decided that since I'm getting the car painted I might as well pull the tank and fresh air box and do it right. I do have some fuel in the tank and just need something to plug the fittings on the bottom so I don't end up with a lake of fire in the garage.

I'm going to replace the lines from the tank to the ones that run through the tunnel but can't remember which size.

I seem to remember either 12mm or 5/16.

I am running carbs so the high pressure FI lines aren't needed.

alan, 5/16 (8mm) is what i used. i broke down and bought a 25' box of Gates fi hose. i can use it for FI or carbs. per foot cost was the same as standard carb hose since i bought in *bulk*. next i'm going to put in one of chris' stainless lines so i can forget the center tunnel hassle forever. do you have to run a return line with your 6 fuel pump?
