I can post you up the measurements tomorrow when I get back into town. I have a 30# C&L tube in my 76mm housing on my car. I should be able to let you know what size it is sometime tomorrow afternoon or early evening if that will help.
 
C&L sample tubes should be color coded @ end of tube. For a 73MM using 24Lb injectors w/ filter attached to air meter should be orange. Whith stock air box or cold air kit it should be brown. With 30Lb injectors a green tube is used.

I have a sample tube on my 73MM that is supposed to be for a 24Lb injector, but it has no color code at all. I purchased this tube thru Texas Mustang Parts. According to C&L all of their tubes are color coded and I was sold a "bootleg" tube for a C&L meter, so I probably have been using the wrong tube for several years now. But I do have the correct tube coming to me from C&L.

If yours are not color coded either, you may have a bootleg tube in your air meter also.
