Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Fuel, etc., lines

[David Thursby (david]

The original style braided hose is stupidly expensive, and generally not 
very good by today's standards. If you are building a concourse car, 
you'll have to spend the $$$ and put up with it. If you're building a 
real world car, get what you feel good with - Goodyear hose, gates green 
stripe etc. If you simply want the best, Dave Helms has several hundred 
feet of metric size, braided silicon hose. This stuff is just fantastic, 
and almost looks like the original. He has all the common sizes used in 
Ferraris.
