Hey Guys,
I have a profound hate of cloth braided fuel line and hose clamps. I would like to upgrade to aircraft style fittings and couplers. I'm looking for some general tips and tricks and what can I or can I not do with it?
Cheers,
Kirin

Like chris said Aeroquip! Most hose companys have lines that are cool! Like Greenline and newline
Newline is called H100 and it is good up to 250PSI fuel,diesel, compatible and is woven like OE smog hose on the beetle and Greenline sells G102 series and it is the same except it is a normal silicone looking black hose (ie like heater hose) both great hose and a different look!

I have a liking for Earl's and their Prolite 350 hose. Very easy to work with, very light, and looks like German hose from 4 feet.

So, where's the best place to buy the areoquip hose and fittings?

Mopac - I have some new odds and ends up for grabs on my website store - in the live auctions area.
