stainless steel oil lines

I've heard that industrial supply houses will do custom length hoses with swedged ends (they won't come apart like the screw together ends sometimes do if they're not done right) at a much better price than anywhere that deals with the hot rod crowd. Minimum size is -8, and the Teflon lined hose is supposed to flow better and won't swell shut like the rubber lined hose sometimes does. 

If you give me exact lengths and -AN sizes and the fittings on the ends I can make them for you and ship them out.

We offer stainless braided hose, and also black nylon braided stainless hose. We have blue and red -AN fittings, black, silver, or gunmetal with black ends as far as color fittings.

But I would need to know the exact (end to end) lengths. We use Redline fittings as well as Earls. Can be in aluminum or steel, whichever you prefer.

Look in the yellow pages under "Hose couplings and fittings" or do a google on "Tubes and Hoses" and see what'cha get.  

People are making custom hydraulic hoses for the construction industry in every city in America.  You should have someone close by.  

All you need do is bring in your old hoses (for length) and tell them what ends you want.  Braided hoses should cost (ballpark) $10 per end and $10 per foot of length.

Yellow Pages?

Yea Terry, that is that fat book that holds up the left front corner of your coffee table, you know the one you cut an inch and a half too short?

I've had the swaged lines start leaking after a while and they can't be repaired other than putting a new end on them.  I would take Seduction up on his offer.  Use the black or stainless teflon and you won't have to worry about rocks hitting the lines.  They can also put heat shield on the lines where they run by the exhaust.

Thanks for some good suggestions. I'll take some accurate measurements and get going on this.

Fpcopo;

Are these stainless lines, similar in appearance to plumbing hook up lines, but with Teflon tubing inside?

Yes but they are a little thicker walled and rated for much higher pressure.  Also you really shouldn't go smaller than a -8 line which is 1/2" id.  The stainless teflon hose shouldn't be bothered by the heat from the header, but to be safe use the fire shield then you can sleep at night.

Anytime you cut SS brained/ neo-rubber lines flush them out with light weight oil . It will move any metallic shards that many remain after you make your cuts. Yes ya think water or air will blow it out . Thats a 50/50 chance it may. I locked up my motor doing it . Cost me a new block and a crank.
