fuel to the carb question

I'm finishing up my carbed 355 swap in my 91 camaro. The last thing to do is to run the fuel to the carb. I've got a holley street avenger series 670 cfm carb. I ordered the mallory 4309 3 port return style regulator. Can someone tell me exactly what kind and how much fuel line and fittings and connections I need to get to get the fuel run right.
Thanks for the help...Jake

I use 3\8 NPT threaded hose- barbs, and 3\8 rubber fuel line, and make sure to use good clamps. Your fuel flow should be fine. I'm doing that temporarily till I get stainless braided lines in, but so far everything seems to be working fine. The only thing I've noticed is that the return line is now banging somewhere because of the increased flow. I'll have to find it and fix it I just put in the same regulator. Oh, get 2 plugs. I have one inlet and one outlet to the carb, so I plugged the other 2 openings. Rubber fuel line is cheap, but get about 6-7 fett, so you'll have enough to do the whole job. You'll need 3 hose barbs, 2 plugs, clamps, etc. Don't forget the teflon pipe dope. Don't use tape.
