[T3] Rubber Fuel Lines?

[Dave Hall]

The original carb hose was 5mm, but it's a bit tight really;  5.5mm is
better, which is about 7/32".   From 1968 the hose from the tunnel to the
engine and from fuel tank to tunnel was increased to 7mm, which is
equivalent to the 5/16" that Jim recommends for the FI hoses.

This probably isn't what you need for carbs. I know the OE carbs use
something smaller. If you have aftermarket carbs, you'll have to determine
what size you need. Carbs certainly won't take nearly as much length and
probably need a smaller diameter.
