Default Braided hose

Anyone out there have any idea where I can buy Built Up stainless Braided Hoses? Mainly a fuel line but I'm looking into replacing a lot of my rubber hoses.

THANKS!!

You can easily custom make them. Jegs or Summit Racing has everything you need. I haven't seen anything that's been mass produced for the S197 mustang??? maybe there is?

pm me if you want to try custom making them, and I can probably give you enough info for you to do this on your own. I've made several of them for my '67 Chevelle.

I was also considering dressing up the engine bay with those braided over-pipes.Haven't seen a kit for the S197 but I guess somebody must make one [?]

I got mine from Earls Performance Plumbing (link below). If your planning on re-plumbing the PCV lines, make sure you get hi-vac rated hose. I went with Earl's Premium Racing hose as it has a high vacuum rating and smaller bend radius. You'll need at least 22 in/Hg vacuum rated hose or it may collapse.

Hmm, if people would be interested I would have no problem doing something like this. The problem is getting the parts for cheap and making it worth while for everyone.
