Yes it will. The stock lines are large enough as well. They are tiny.

Murix,
I have an -4 an line from an old nitrous kit, is this line's inner diameter bigger than the stock fuel supply line hardline from the fuel pump to fuel rail? I wanted to switch out the hardline and replace it with this steel braided hose if i could.
thanks for the info!

I want to say that it is, but to be honest I forget. I have not looked at the size in some time so it would require some measurment. Avenger ES-T might possibly know from the top of his head if he pops up.

I'm pretty sure you will be ok ;) take a look under yoru car on the passenger side and you will see either 3 or 4 metal tubes running down the length of the car. ALL your fuel is running thorugh ONE of those tubes. That should give you a good idea of what I am trying to say :)

bring it on............

okay, i'm thinking that i am going to run a -6AN braided line from the fuel pump to the fuel filter. rubber hose from the fuel filter to the rail, and then rubber hose from the rail to the S-FMU, and then -4AN from the FMU back to the tank, you think this will do? where the heck do i get stainless braided line in so.cal?
thanks

Check anplumbing.com or summitracing.com. I've found anplumbing has cheaper prices (same stuff). It's pricy, but you can't beat the quality.
