Your truck had 5/16" line originally if it is 1967 model year or older. In 1968 I believe Ford went to 3/8" fuel line for all vehicles.

You need to go to a 3/8" pickup in the tank or the line size won't matter.

Right now I have a 454 CI (427 center oiler based) that makes around 450 HP, a 448 CI (427 side oiler based) makes maybe a bit more, a 427 side oiler that is stock 390HP but with a bit more cam so lets say 425 HP, and am building a 430 CI side oiler that ought to be 500 HP. I have not run any of them on a dyno but the 448 CI engine runs high 12 / low 13 seconds in the 1/4 mile at 3700 pounds with me on board. That's on FR70 X 14 street radials driving like you are on ice in first gear.

All use the M6905 or 4441S which is the same. All the cars have 3/8" fuel line except the '67 Cougar which has the 454 CI engine and 5/16" line. I have not run it at the strip but it may be marginal, don't know until I try it.

Come to the Pure Stock Muscle Car Drags in Michigan this year and watch me run high 12's at 108 - 110 MPH on skinny bias ply tires.
