They are fine, but I have 1/8 in NPT fittings on the tank.

RE: Fuel Crossover Question?

Can't you make an adaptor or sleeve so you can use the 5/16 or 1/4 inch fuel line? Should not be that difficult to reduce a 1/4fuel line down to 1/8 inch. I would be a little worried with only an 1/8 inch line not much flow rate. Nice tank tho.

1/8" is a lot bigger than the hole in the carb jet, that's the limiting factor.

RE: Fuel Crossover Question?

Is the ID of the fitting actually 1/8"?

RE: Fuel Crossover Question?

1/8" is plenty, the inside of the stock Harley fitting is the same size. If you don't believe it just unhook your crossover and watch the flow. The purpose is just to balance the level in both sides when the level is below the tunnel, not supply fuel to the engine.
