What size are the fuel lines?

I need to buy some fuel line at the parts store and was just wondering what size it is. I also will be getting some coolant lines to; are they the same size and type of the fuel lines? The lines I am replacing are the ones under the upper manifold.

Someone previously posted that they were 5/16" (.3125") I.D.

That size is not too terribly common. I went with a soft walled .344" with hopes that it will give enough under the clamp to seal. This weekend I hope to find out. BTW the .344" hose is a -6 goodridge hose size.

Should be 5/16 and make real sure it says it is for fuel injection purposes. You don't want that other fuel line that is meant for systems that run 10psi.

I believe I need the lines with the nylon reinforcements. I'm not sure they are nylon but it kinda looks like lil strings running through the rubber.
