No, not really - that's the joy of using a surge tank. My surge tank utilises a 1/4" from the lifter pump for no restriction, a 1/2" to the EFI pump for no restriction, a 1/4" for fuel rail return for no restriction, and a 1/4" outlet for no restriction. I have also replaced the fuel feed line to the engine bay with a new 5/16" bundy tube line, and don't use step downs at all. Care must be taken when bending new fuel lines, not to kink them, for not only does it reduce the ID, it will also create a wear point over time, reducing the wall thickness until it starts leaking!
