I ran -10 on my Duster, but as Mr. P points out, -8 is 1/2" and that's as big - or bigger - than many pickup tubes.
One side-effect of a remote filter is it takes a bit longer to spool up oil pressure, so don't be surprised by that.

Keep the I.D. of the hose the same I.D. as the orifice your feeding it out or bigger BTW, what type of remote filter mount and which filter are you going to use?

Mine is #12 from pan to pump and #10 to and from the filter. So much nicer to change oil filters now (not so messy). Oil pressure is immediate upon cranking, 75 lbs at all times.

When I remote a filter I always use -10.

Thats a different deal then you have with the milodon setup where the line is feeding the oil pump. A remote is moving pressurized oil through the filter. -10 is plenty big enough IMO.

Keep in mind that this is a small block and all I am trying to do is get rid of the factory 90 deg adaptor so I don't get my new headers oiled up.I usually use a stock Napa Gold filter.I am going to use the Moroso mount,it has a spot for a guage too.

-8 or -10 will work fine.... I went with the -8 on
my 416 and on the dyno it proved to be fine... I
moved the filter towards the front on the frame rail
