Wrong forum... I'll move it to fuel and ignition.

The "AN" size is approx. the line diameter in 16ths of an inch....

-6AN = 6/16 = 3/8"
-8AN = 8/16 = 1/2"
-10AN = 10/16 = 5/8"

I run 800 flywheel HP, including a 300-shot, off -6AN supply and return lines, with the rails running in parallel instead of in series. If you are looking at 950HP, you should be running at least an -8AN supply.

Note that the sizes are the eqivalent of O.D. for a steel hard line.
