i like the look of the black, but they're the same hose. The -8 stuff with the rubber end caps is XRP. If you want cheap fittings... get these from speedway motors, they're the -10 fittings you see with the red aluminum endcaps. I've had great luck with them, only one fitting was a little loose for my tastes and I put a clip on it (top picture).

Technically yes the fluid coming out of the converter can exceed 300 degrees, however I'm running a 5600 spragless converter that builds alot of heat and I have had zero issues with my fittings. I do inspect the hose every month or so, and I've seen no differences compared to my fuel hose. Sustained 300+ temperatures might be a problem, but intermittently I think it will be just fine. I would NOT use socketless stuff on a turbo 10.5 car... the pressures and temperatures there would probably cause problems.
