Braided Fuel Line Vs Rubber
Unfortunately changes in fuel blending eventually began to take its toll on this.
Braided fuel line vs rubber. And i m likely going to replace the rest too. As it is now i ve replaced about half of these lines with regular naked rubber high quality fuel line. Rubber lines are made in the same way as braided lines. Rubber line hose ends may be swagged or crimped onto the rubber line.
Depending on the rubber line it could withstand. They are also easier to replace if you are out on the track. It works very well. The advantage to rubber lines are that they are cheap the alcohol compliant goodyear line is 4 6 a foot depending on size and very easy to work with.
If there s a braided fuel line. Hg for 7 16 inch and smaller inside diameter sizes 10 in. Rubber lines are best used when your high performance vehicle needs a hose to be routed in a difficult place. I read nhra requires braided steel lines ran along the frame rails.
No idea how long it would take my lines to rot out though. Standard neoprene fuel hose can be used for fuel pcv and eec systems on all vehicles where working pressures are under 50 psi or vacuum ratings are under 24 in. The best in my opinion though. I think i spent just 200 for my ls1 braided steel rubber lines with russell fittings and the corvette filter.
Found a site that wants 450 550 for hard lines with a corvette filter and compression fittings.
