Can someone verify for me that the fuel line for a Bugeye is 1/4"? I will go with either soft copper or copper/nickel (which I prefer.)
Thank you

Paul,
I used the 1/4" copper/nickel on the fuel line and it has worked so far. It seemed to me that the copper/nickel had thicker wall reducing the inside and it seemed small but has worked so fare. I think 1/4" is as big as the copper/nickel comes. Alaska copper in Kent has it but they are quite expensive.

I used copper refrigerator ice maker tubing before. A Frank C trick. Needs to be properly supported or it will crack. A short piece of rubber gas live later and two clamps and it lasted another 10 years.

Thank you to everyone. I chose copper and will be working on it over the next few days as my engine room is empty.
