Default Braided hose sizes and uses?

Just wondering if anybody had the hose sizes available for a 2000 Camaro for fuel lines, A/C and radiator hoses.

I'm wanting to change out a few hoses and wanted to know which ones to do. I saw some pics of Steve's and liked the setup but noticed that he didn't have the fuel lines coming through the FRC's done in braided, is there a reason for that or was he trying to not over do it?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve, do you remember any of the hose sizes that you used?

If not, can anybody tell me where I can go to find the correct sizes (inner diameter)?

But you can't just go changing the inner diameter of the hoses. I just need the sizes and don't know where to get them.

Yep.. took the OEM ones to the shop and they duplicated them in braided.. the AC lines had to be special carbon lined teflon to hold the freon..

Fuel line is easy.. the return line was proving to be a pain since the ends are all plasic and hard to convert to metal AN. Lots of fab work and $$$ but look super

I've got a source for the braided lines and understand that I'll have to get some connectors but I need to know sizes so I can get the right lines. Know where I can find out what the sizes are?
