Installing larger fuel lines

I'm installing larger fuel lines on my '93 F250 diesel so that I can eventually run waste veggie oil. Is it possible to find injector line caps and hose barbs for the IP and filter that are 3/8"?

Any viton-lined fuel hose (30R9 'fuel injection hose') will work fine. I dunno about the fittings on your IDI...

Really? I'm surprised, if it's true that's great I'll save myself a lot of work! Another friend who had veggie had 1/4" lines and said he replaced them all because you want 3/8" or more on all the fuel lines. Y'all run veggie in the lines that are standard on your vehicles?
