Fuel line size??

I've been getting mixed reviews about this. But anyway I have a 402bbc with a mechanical pump a aluminum fuel tank in the rear of my 67. What size fuel line should I run from the tank to the pump and what size line from the pump to the carb? Do I need a filter between the tank and pump and a filter between the pump and carb?

I would say 3/8 ID line would be sufficient and use a filter between your pump and the carb.
