I converted my Daytona 22 from carbed 2.4 liters to offshore 2.5 260's so I need to re-do the fuel system, change to high pressure pumps, install return lines etc. Question, what diameter fuel line should I use? Same diameter to for the in line versus the return line?

Thanks, Walt

3/8" feed and 5/16" return. I second the recommendation to look at Diamond Marine's website. Great info there

Totally forgot about the return!!

5/16 or -4 an is perfect

1/2" from the tank to the pump, 3/8" from the pump to the rail, 3/8" or 5/16" for the return.
