Phil,

Just measured the OD on my fuel line at 0.312". Looks like 5/16" to me............

Tom,
Thanks for taking the time, Like John said he would be surprised if it were 3/8. At least we are sure of the size and maybe the parts houses will get it correct. I wonder how may cars out there have 3/8 instead of 5/16.
Again thanks for the information
Phil
John, I bought a new 1969 Z28 ordered it in Aug/Sep 68 one of the funnest cars I ever owned, but I was 20 at the time and traded it the next year for a 70 SS396/375 who would have thought.

Phil -

Sure looks familiar! Mine is all-original, unrestored/unmolested, 34,000 miles; bought it from the original owner 12 years ago.
