Fuel line size - TPI / Carb

Are the 2 Fuel lines and Charcoal Canister line for the L69 carb'd motor the same size as those for the LB9 and L98 TPI motors?
Thanks,
Larry.

They're the same size, but they're terminated differently. Carbed cars have a hose barb swedged into the end, TPI has an o-ringed Saginaw fitting.

Thanks. The fitting info was something I forgot about.
