Anyone have any thoughts on optimal fuel line sizes for .60 or .70 sized engines?
Is 1/8" sufficient, or would 5/32" be a better choice? I would imagine flow vs. pressure would be a factor.
Or am I just splitting hairs?

Also; regarding the uniflow system;
Does the exaust pressure going into the bottom of the fuel tank cause bubbles in the fuel?
How is this arrangement better than the exaust pressure going in at the top of the tank?
Would the pressure be the same at the top vs. the bottom?
thanks,
richard
