Got some rubber hose from home depot and stopped at the plumbing store, hope the fittings hold.

Looks kosher, I'd run it.

WildBillyT 01-11-2013 07:06 PM

Looks Kohler, I wouldn't.

I think they said it was good to 400psi?

Looks like a snow plow line

I have a brand new GM PS line from an Impala SS I bought years ago for the 68 Camaro I had with the LT1. I never used it, and it's still in the wrapper. Check GM part # 26034742 to see what it look like but if you want it you're welcome to it.

LTb1ow 01-13-2013 06:41 PM

Ordered what I hope are the correct fittings today, if they don't work I will let you know Jeff, maybe bring it with you to Firkin?
