[QUOTE="Hello Kitty, post: 943638, member: 19029"] Sorry, Doug, I knew that.... I do apologize for speaking openly of such indelicate topics, but I am of the school that bigger is better. Despite what you may have heard. 5/16" it will be. I like the flow to be a bit quicker as well. The previous owner said that he never had any trouble with gravity on this set up and I believe he was using 5/16", but again, I wanted to be sure that there wouldn't be any clearance issue with THIS bulkhead fitting. Without getting a tape out, I think the standoffs on the cell are about 2", but I am just a girl who is bad at measuring length because of all the lies I've been told. :lol: Yeah, I saw that they sell the nice quick disconnects and one might assume that is what comes with the kit, but I don't like to make assumptions and then be disappointed. Ya'll can have fun with that one too, I suppose. :) Hope to do the install soon, Cape Fear will be her first real test. Thanks for the input, it is much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
