careful which fuel hose you pick....
i went to kragen the other day and asked for "fuel injection rated fuel hose" and they gave me the wrong one.
the one we need should have SAE 30R9 stamped on it and it should cost about $5/foot. the one i got from kragen was SAE 30R7.
i dunno if the guy was just a dumbass, but i had asked him several times if the hose was rated for fuel injected cars and he kept saying yes and that he uses the hose for his NOS kit which runs 80 psi. well after looking up the pressure ratings, the kragen hose is only good for 50 psi...the 30R9 is good for 125.
i've made this mistake once already and had a fuel hose leak on me, no way i'm gonna let it happen again.
j.ho
