[Roadsters] Gas and brake line sizes?

I still don't understand the Volvo caliper mod. I am given to understand that the brakes on the Roadster (maybe only late-models?) are the same as used on the Jensen Interceptor, which weighs 3500 lbs to the Roadster's 2000 lbs more or less. If these brakes, in good nick, could haul an Interceptor down from speed, should be easey-peasey for our wee chariots.

I won't replace the short ones on the calipers cause I am going to go 
with the Volvo mods and the brake manifold designed by Mark Sedlack.  I 
am only concerned with the longer lines to front and back from the 
master cylinder and from the master cylinder to the slave for the brake 
pedal.  I also need to replace the both the gas feed line and the return 
line from the tank to the engine.  If know one knows the sizes offhand 
then I hope to get the auto parts guys to determine from a short section 
I can take them.

I am working mostly from  help on this web page.
