No need to please Clyde 

If you like nostalgia 

Buy it 

I like stuff that works not catches fire!

In victory you deserve Champagne

In defeat you need it!

 

     

Scars are Tattoos with better stories !

 

If you follow all the rules

You miss all the fun!

Hoses:  Fuel or otherwise.

If you want cheap, get-you-by, go to your local parts place.

But if you are serious about doing any of your hoses there is only one place/person for Ferrari hoses today:   Dave Helms - Scuderia Rampante


Dave is one of us and has researched this relentlessly.  He is having custom hoses made precisely for each application.  You can buy cheaper - hell, you can even pay more, but you will not find a better hose or a better fitting hose for any part of your Ferrari than those being offered by Dave Helms.  Period.   Strong statement... I know.   But I've been there and have seen what he is doing.  I stand by that statement.

Any way one looks at it, fuel is dangerous.
