You want to use -8AN minimum from the tank to the carb. Then use -6AN to supply the fuel bowls. I think I used like 18ft of the -8AN line when I did mine years ago. I've always liked Earl's Fittings, but there are many other manufactures out there. Summit even makes them if you want to save a few bucks.

With today's fuels, don't use a fuel line that isn't lined with teflon inner liner. Anything else will be compromised and at best smell like gas, at worst, leak and cause a fire.

I would use fuel injection hose and some good clamps.
The braiding just hides any problems,and the fittings are expensive.
Shouldn't be too much hose anyway,most of the fuel system should be steel.
Mainly transition from tank to line and line to carb.
