Can anyone tell me what size an fuel line to run on my car? It is being used for street and strip duties. Someone told me 8an was the size to use but then i heard that was too small. Any recommendations?

8AN is equivalent to 1/2", that should be more than sufficient for a street strip car up to 500HP.

8-an will be more than enough. I run it on my car now and it's rated to 850-900 rwhp

Engine, Power Adder, EFI, Carb, Pump, Power Level etc etc Need some of those answers first ;)

I normally run a -10 Feed line to a Y Block and then -8 from there to the rails and -8 from the rails to the regulator, and a -10an return line. That is what I do on EFI cars.

Fuel system is one of those items that you can't really over build LOL

Like Brandon said, dont skimp on fuel system. I run #10 to the reg and #8 return for my carb engine.

Stock bottom 306, 580 lift solid cam, ported iron heads, Parker intake, 750 DP carb, MSD ignition, BBK long tubes, 3500 stall, C4, 8.8 with 4.10 gears, Holley blue pump. May use nitrous at some point but not right away.

-8 will work just fine

8 will work but i think 10 would be better,plus if you start going faster you have it done and you will have to buy it again because that shit can get exspensive.
