Can somebody assure me that the 5/16" fuel lines supplied with the complete kit is the correct size for a 347 stroker, 4 brrl carb,mechanical fuel pump with no return line? Just want to double check before I install the 5/16" lines. thanks Andy
It will probably be ok, but we ended up going with larger lines. The thinking being that it would be easier to do now, than on a completed car.

5/16 is probably sufficient for most street engines. But if your 347 makes decent HP and you stomp the go pedal a lot, 3/8" is better. That's what I'm using on my 331

I have a Levy 347, FI. I used 1/2 inch up and 3/8 return. That way when I come to my senses and install A MUCH BIGGER ENGINE, I will have that chore taken care of
