Mid-Ship Fuel Sender
Need some advice, want to use a 3/8 fuel line sender but have 2 different part numbers. Going to run new NiCopp 3/8" fuel line for both rear tank mod and mid-ship tanks. Looking at NPD with part #F-9275-4A and #F-9275-4B but applications seem to be the same ?? Stock calls for 5/16" line but i want to upgrade for future use so Spectra Premium makes me wonder about quality so i just wanted to see what everyone has to say. Thanks in advance !

Love pics, i am guessing one part number is for 5/16 fuel line and other number for 3/8 fuel line. Fuel injection probably run about 3000 by the time i got done hooking up 2 tanks and the FiTech carb i am looking at so fuel injection just not in the cards. Have a slight kink in 5/16 line at carb when it was bent to hook up to carb so going to replace with 3/8 since it seems to surge when winding it up 60 to 70. Thanks for getting back to me.

Running a 71' D1VE block with the 460 crank installed so it really loves the gas stations. Never noticed any issues before fuel line was installed. Carb is actually a QJ and was told it was 800cfm by local auto shop and it was rebuilt about 6 months ago. Tried Holley 750cfm for years but it hated the winters so i hate to admit it but the QJ has given me no issues at all even though its an electric choke model. I don't care for the way fuel line from pump to carb is run anyways so that is why i am considering stepping up to the 3/8 NiCopp. Is there a 3/8 fuel sender model for the F25A Spectra Premium gas tank ?? Cause all i am seeing is that its 5/16 inch for the 68' truck i have which i am sure will be fine, just trying to do fuel system one time.
