fuel line size

Line from pump to carb; is it 5/16", 1/2-20 fitting, or 3/8", 5/8-18 fitting?

Did you ever find out? I know for sure that it isn't 1/4NPT or 3/8NPT (I took my fuel pump up to Lowes to try to find a fitting).

FYI it is a 1/2- NF20 inverted flare. I found an adaptor to -6AN at a hydraulic parts store but you can find it on any number of websites.

Edit: not sure what size inlet the stock carb is though.

Ended up finding a place that sold specialty sizes of copper tubing by the foot cheap. It's the 5/16" line with a 1/2-20 thread fitting. I reused the fitting from my original hard line.
