I was going to make some but im afraid of a leak. i have both ends i need to make them is it possible to use clamps? or do i need to buy some somwere?

 

I bought mine through www.lt1intake.com (John Millican) who sells the LT1 intake conversion. I was happy with the lines and they bolted up without any problems.

 

arent they like 100$ tho? They probably cost like 10$ to make but if its my only option i might not have much of a choice..

 

I also offer them, a bit more than his though mine are stainless, im sure his dont cost $10 to make, most of the people around here seem to ASSume quality work is dirt cheap and plentiful, not enough people around here out to have something nice and done right the first time.

PS I also offer the steering high pressure hose with adapter fittings.

 

You can buy the quick connect ends at O'Rielly's for about 10 bucks a piece. Autozone has 3/8 and 5/16 Fuel Injection hose for like 4 bucks a foot, I took those pieces and my old hardlines, cut the threaded ends that go onto the original rubber lines and made connectors that I can un-screw there as well. Total in the cost was about 30 bucks.

sweet more details on this. .. how did you clamp it to fit?


For my power steering hose im going with a stock caprice ss hose it fits perfect on to our pump and only cost 35$ new.

Yea i know im definatly not saying his lines are cheap quality. just a exageration on price. i couldnt imagine it being hard though to take a hose and crimp 2 fittings on it is all. I wish i had the tools.

 

I'd bet his are similar in the assembly to mine, and i assure you they arent just "crimp fit" by hand, they are done in a hydraulic press, with a sleeve, his seem to use goodyear weatherhead hose, the main difference in price between those and mine, for some of us hose clamps and parts store "fuel injection" hose just arent an option.

 

Yea i know im on the otherside of the fence though. for us 100$ rubber hoses just arent an option. lol

I realy never wanted to use the hose clamp method but if it works i will try it. I might be writing in a few months about a fire in my engine bay. lol

 

You probably wont have a fire from just a few months of use, but hey im not out to trust hose clamps with that much pressure, i've seen too many of em end up not working worth crap, not to say dont use em at all, but im not trusting them with my fuel at 40 psi, especially when some of us are considering forced induction, and with a simply raised base pressure of 45 lbs and ONLY 1:1 to compensate for boost ( not adding fuel here like an fmu) 10 psi would mean 55 lbs, heck 6 psi with a 4:1 fmu and stock base pressure of 38 lbs would mean 62 psi.

Heres a shot of the end of one of my PS lines

The fuel lines are a little different on the sleeve they use, but either way, not coming undone.
