If you are talking about repalcing the hard black tubes I used 5/32" heavy wall vac line with 3/16" barbs. I pulled all that hard tubing out so I'm sure on the OD.

No the rubber ones that connect to those hard tubes. Elbows to the FPR etc. Thanks!

I'd love it, but they already have Chuck Earhardt - the guy who LITERALLY wrote the book on evidence!
And the Gator thing was made by Testy for me when I complained about his "bias." I can't help it if others appreciate a good avatar

The 5/32" vac line fit all of the barbs(FPR, FD, banjo bolt, etc) but is too big for that hard black tubing. My tubing was so brittle it just crumbled in my hand. I think the OE size can't be any more than 1/8" ID if you don't go metric for a replacement hose.

It's really kind of funny.....
I bought the Lindsey vaccuum kit and wound up doing the venturi delete and cycling valve delete. I also have an EBC. In the end, I used less than half of the Lindsey tubing and NONE of the tees!
