AN Fittings, Stainless Braided Lines, where to buy them, how to assemble them, etc.

Just adding food for thought, But is there a reason you're going with Steel braided line instead of normal high pressure? The only concern I have with this is my past experience with SS brake lines. (haven't used them for fuel) It's an argument that comes up from time to time between the two. That some companies gauge the pressure rating by the reinforcement value of the steel braid, not by the urethane hose underneath. So what this means is that if you develop a weak spot over time in your braided line the exposed hose underneath is not the same strength anymore because it doesn't have the support from the braid. I had a SS brake line split on me. (under driving course conditions.) for that very reason.

I'm not positive if this has been changed or not, the last time this topic came up for me was about 3 years ago. But it would be a very good thing to call your manufacturer and ask if the pressure rating of your lines is based on the value of the inner tubing and reinforced by the steel braid or if the rating comes from it as an entire unit.

Good luck with your project!
