Default Fuel line size

I'm starting to get the next part of the prem organised (finally)

Fuel lines.....what is the most practical size? I'll use braided line but i'm unsure of what size to go for, -8 or -10.

It'll run from a sump in the tank to the fuel filter then the pump then up to regulator then into the carby.

I want to use both lines from the reg, one line to each bowl in the carby.

Fuel pump is a holley blue, Engine is a 383, Big crane cam, 750 BG mighty demon, Engines good for about 400hp. 3000rpm stally and it'll have 4.11 gears in the diff.

At the moment its running 3/8 rubber line through the original pickup in the tank, it has a holley mechanical pump on it (80 or 90 gph I think) and if i'm heavy on the foot it'll drain the carby at about 4500rpm.
Any help is appreciated
