Stainless hardlines done!

Been working on this here and there for a little while now. I finally think I'm happy with it. This is the engine in my 32 Ford truck.

Coolant Steam vent and fuel lines.... pain in the *** to flare and bend.

Nice job. Where did you get your lines and fittings? I'm about to hard line my termified notch. The damn stainless braided lines are leaking after a year.

I had about 10 15' sticks of 3/8th from my father-in-law and the rest of the 3/8th stuff I got from a local place.

All if the 1/4 stuff came from nitrous outlet.

I use a RIGID bender and flare tool... and not the RIGID from home depot
