Crimp style AN fittings for aluminum fuel line?
I was flipping through the summit catalog, and russell alum. fuel line is $30 for 25 feet, and they also sell crimp style an fittings, which do not require flaring the line.... anyone have any experience with these? pros/cons? I don't want to spend $120 on stainless braided lines, and I don't want to do 37* flaring and have it leak because I screwed it up

I bought both the aluminum and stainless steel line for my cars fuel system. I found that it was worth buying the stainless steel line, because it was much easier to work with, and I ended up just throughing out the aluminum line(flare style) because I wouldn't bend it easily for the rails or under the car to the pump.
Go with stainless unless you are a very patient person!!!
