The one coming up of the fuel pressure regulator? I put a 1/4" (6.3mm) line on that. NOT silicone.

Make sure you get fuel-injection fuel hose, its high pressure. Carb fuel hose is for low pressure and *will* fail eventually. You really don't want a fuel line squirting onto your turbo/manifold. Bad things are bound to happen.

6.3 seems a little tight to my memory but sounds like it works fine. I think I used 8mm?
