IMO Mike, 3/8" is too small to feed one of your fuel hungry SBC's.

I was going to suggest -10AN to the regulator, -8 to the carb and -8 return.

Better have a big pump with that size line.

Talking Re: stocker gas line

Dave I checked your engine specs and understand why you need that much fuel! I got 390/410 lift 1.94/1.50 valves with a Qjet, and run the same class as you. I was told it cost 2-3 times as much to run a Ford .WOW. I priced the a1000, $550 cdn with tax another WOW. I just retired and we are on a budget ha ha .See you next year, and thanks for the input . Mike
