"Getting ready to replace my fuel lines, does anyone have any thoughts on a preferred fuel line? I'm pretty sure its supposed to be 3/8 i.d., one friend said i should get fuel injection line because its rated higher pressure, but i figure its never gonna have more than 10 psi, so whats the difference if the max psi is 80 or 150?"

"3/8" steel w/ inverted flares is the factory supplied stuff, on the pressure side. I think Diver Dave uses the braided line with the AN flares. More initial expense but its got to be easier to work with.

3/8" supply hose has proven adequate for my big blocks and i'd expect would be more than adequate for you small block(s). Just remember to get the USCG approved "A" stuff"

"You can also run stainless tubing, as I did on mine. It's annealed stuff that bends and cuts easily. McMaster Carr (mcmaster.com) sells it (reasonable priced).
