I'm doing ac lines out of braided stainless lines. I prefer to use as small line as possible.. I did an engine swap, so that's the reason behind thing these lines. Do I have to match the I.d. of stock lines? Or can I use something about half in diameter compared to stock?

u need to know if the stainless lines u are using will be able to handle the pressure. i don't remember exact but the high line will see 200-300psi of pressure.

yea lines are aeroquip a/c lines. I know lines will be good... problem is, I can only fit AN-6 size lines in my car which is about half of the stock hose diameter... I'm curious whether "flow" of the refrigerant matters in the system.. this is for the low side.
just out of curiosity, how would it affect pressure? i thought it would be a flow problem. I will be filling refrigerant to a goal pressure, not volume. and i won't be selling this car for a decade
