    I have a question, whats better, the hard lines you get from Enderle or the rubber flex ones. Is it just a looks thing or are the rubber flex ones better for flow?? I am talking about the fuel injection lines.:D

    I am setting up a new system and this will make the diff.

    I use rubber on all 16 of mine. I think they are easyer to deal with. Im not saying they are any better but I like them.

    Hi Corey, you don't say what type of race car you have. I have used both from 10 sec boats and door slammers to 5.__ funny cars and dragsters. I have found the hard lines will crack or loosen easier due to vibration. Rubber is easier to move around ie thrashing to take a blower off or even change a nozzle.
    Just my opinion.
    thanks
    Dale

    I'll second Dale's opinion. I have seen the hard lines crack and loosen. I have had the best luck with the rubber lines. When the easter bunny leaves a golden egg under the christmas tree I want to get the lines Will sells- the goodridge lines- they are very nice. Dave Germain

    Rubber or hard lines

    It is a blown alcohol top sportsman car. I think I am going to go with the rubber lines. It seems they will be easier to deal with with jet changes plus the breakage due to vibration seems like a pretty important saftey consideration.


    Thanks for the insight
    Corey
