-AN fittings
-AN fittings I know there are several manufacturers and they all have to be almost identical as far as size and such. But is any one better than the other as far as smoothness of hooking up the braid to the fittings?
I use Earl's where I have the fittings, and have heard good things about Aeroquip, but never used them. I have a couple Russel fittings on my car right now that are leaking a little, and they are about to be replaced.
The more expensive the peice the better off you are in the end.
I bought a bunch of the summit fittings, they are 50/50 on working and being peices of leaky ****.
I know use earls on everything.

It really just depends on your luck I guess.
I had a bunch of summit fittings last and a few fly off at 20+psi and some that just wouldnt stop leaking for the life of them.
Spend the money on the nicer stuff, they dont all bite the line the same either. Look at the summit/jegs ones compared to an Earls peice. The earls peice is a lot more aggressive on the part that will ultimatly secure your line to the fitting.

Well, I have been assembling a manifold fuel rail &
hoses using mostly Jeg's, some Russell fittings and
I was recently advised to use some sealer on the
AN fittings. Is this a sound idea and if so, what's
good? Maybe it'd relieve some leakage? Or just find
its way to the injector baskets....

i was told the same thing about the sealer on the threads from an old hotrod builder who is soon to be my father in law (and building them is what he does for a living)
ounce of prevention da da da da.......
just my 2 cents

I've used alot of the Jeg's brand AN fittings and they are good quality. Earl's gets my vote if you want a name brand fitting. The Summit brand fittings are thin and junky IMO.
