I got my ss hose from Jegs along with the AN fittings. The hose and fittings will cost more than the catch cans.

Does the "an" matter? How long of hoses do i need?. A link would work best, jegs website doesnt seem to work for me. Thanks.

If you want to use braided stainless hose. You should use the AN fittings. I don't know what size your cans are. On mine, I use -8 hose.

One 10ft hose. You have to cut it to length you need for each section.

Have you ever worked with braided hose?

The braided hoses don't flex real good. You can't make sharp bends with it. To cut the hose. It's best to tape up the spot with lots of electrical tape. Then cut in the middle of the tape with a cut-off wheel on a die grinder. Don't use a hack saw. You'll tear it up.

You will need this to assemble the hose and fitting together.

Another thing to keep in mind with SS braided hose - be careful how they are routed and what they might be touching. As things vibrate and the motor rocks under torque, a SS braided hose laying against a soft rubber hose will eventually start wearing a hole into the rubber hose.


I went with silicone hoses for my cans.
