Hey guys,
I want to install stainless steel hard line in my buick when I get home, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to do it.
Here's the idea of what I want for the end result and maybe you guys can fill in the blanks.
What I want to do is run 1/2" stainless steel lines along the frame like the factory
did but at the tank side I want to go from hard line to -8 braided to the sending unit, now the sending unit won't be a problem because it came with the -8 feed and -8 return already installed, it's the ROBBMCPERFORMANCE sending unit.
And at the engine side I want to go from the hard line to -8 braided to my pressure regulator, of course with the pump and filter installed somewhere inbetween the tank and hard line.
So after all that my question is this how do I connect the hard line to braided do I have to flare the hard line? Or do I have to get a stainless steel fitting brazed onto the ends of the hard line? Do they make a compression style fitting like they do for repairing brake lines that will hold up to the pressure?
Thanks in advance.
