Quick Tips on installing AN Fittings And Lines?
I have about 20 fittings and lines ready to go on my car.
Everything is all measured out, and ive mocked everything up.
Seems easy enough to put em on, but if seen some shitty installs...
Anyway,
I picked up the Aeromotive Vice adapter so that the fittings dont get destroyed, ive also got some WD-40.
Lines are -10 and -8
Any techniques that you have doing this? Tips? Tricks?

For cutting the line, i would reccomend a dremel with a cut off wheel. If you can spar the extra expense i would get the summit AN cutting tool. The best way to do a perfect fit is a perfect cut. It is allways going to be harder when there is frays on the line.
I would use somewhat of a motor oil on the AN threads to help it go on.
Also, when your done making the section, go ahead and spray a brake cleaner into the line and blow it out with a air gun to rid of anything that might be in the line, you dont want that clogging an injector.

A hacksaw will work for cutting it also, using the tape method.
