Hotrodfuelhose-any experiences? I'm researching my fuel line solution for my 5.3/ 72 el Camino project and came across this:

Does anyone have prior experience with this company and their product? Thank you

It looks like a fairly generic kit, you could probably put your own together for that or less. For the fuel rail quick connects I prefer these if using AN:

They're cleaner IMO than using a fuel rail adapter to AN and an AN to hose fitting. No plastic cages to pop loose either.

Completely agree on the safety aspect. Looking at the bundle again, it looks like they're using PTFE hose and matching fittings. I'm not sure that you could match that price even if you used Summit brand parts.

I ordered all my fuel lines from them, but haven't run them in the truck yet. I was extremely happy with the service.
I'm no expert, but the product looks good.
Check the 66-72 Chevy truck forum, there's a couple of guys over there that have used them. The owner of the company is on that forum as well.

that particular type of AN to EFI barb adapter fitting has been responsible for a couple burn downs. use the screw on kind. the rest of the stuff looks like run-of-the-mill china AN fittings, totally fine IME

Doug, re: fires, was it the Russell brand? Oem uses o-ring fittings like these and that's what I have on a very expensive vette project , I felt like the name brands were better than the china brands.. Idk?
