anybody know how to make the transition from the steel fuel line on a suby to 6an braided hose.
stock suby uses a hd s.s. clamp on the steel line. the o.d. of the line is 7.94mm or .314"
the id of 6an hose is slightly larger not sure if the clamp would work.

Cut the bump off the end and use a 5/16" OD (.3125") Compression to 3/8" NPT adapter fitting.
