[Roadsters] Fuel Line size

[Gary and Cindy Ault]

Eddie,

The fuel line (metal line from the tank) in my '66 measures 0.265 inches OD; 
the brake lines measure 0.195 inches OD. All lines are original.

The rubber fuel line from the filter to the pump is 5/16-inch ID, and the 
rubber line from the pump to the carbs is 1/4-inch ID.  Why the difference, 
I have no clue.

Gary
