    I guess if you do not go to National Events you can get off cheap.

    From the NHRA Website on 2005 rule changes

    Dragsters and Top Alcohol Funny Cars that compete at national events, all flexible-pressure oil lines must use a factory-crimped connection and be pressure-tested and labeled. All testing must be done hydrostatically for a minimum of 30 seconds at 750psi and be labeled to indicate date of test and tester identification.

    Mike,
    does that mean all the pressure lines, or just the pressurized lines, and who crimps them, and is it just oil lines, or does the rule apply to pressurized fuel lines also?
    Does all the lines on the car on the have to be pressure tested?
    NHRA isnt specific enough.

    The rule is that all pressurized oil lines have to meet this rule. Not any scavenge or suction lines. This does not include fuel lines. Also, my understanding is that XRP is the only one who can meet the 750 psi rating.
