There is lots if info about making your own hoses. However, I can't seem to nail down any info about which type hose to use. I've looked at the hose materials mainly from Pegasus and Earl's since these two suppliers get referenced. It looks to me that others have used the Teflon lined hose for both fuel & oil. These are, of course, with stainless steel braid covers. I also see stainless braid covered aramid/synthetic rubber-lined hose. I'll be running a carb, so I'm not certain how rated pressures come into play vs. injected.
The Pegasus Teflon 811 hose has a max temp rating of 500F. I couldn't find a temp rating for Earl's speed flex hose other than it had a "heavier" 0.040 Teflon wall. Both Pegasus & Earls have the fittings specified for their hose.
Those of you making your own fuel & oil hoses, where did you get your materials and which type are you using? (I realize that there is Bonaco, Summitt Racing & other sources.)
Thanks for any help on this.
