I ususlly start with hard lines, in case I add additional stages, which can get really complicated on the bends really quick. The hard lines tend to be more durable IMO example slight rubbing will not burn throuh a hard line.

Single or double flair? The smaller lines heat up quickly through friction and start to galley, if you use white lithium grease or silicone spray while flairing the line it will reduce the friction, however clean thoroughly before installation. It could also be that you are not leaving the right initial lenght protruding through the flair find the right length first too long it rips too short it will not seal ...hope this helps

Built em so many different ways it seems that the building is part of the pay off when you get used to the ET's you want to change the package either for more ET or something entirely different.

O yea it's all about the build but it just don't feel right to have full interior car that has good street manners and does the work to boot.

Hope this makes sense Exclamation

That's how I steer and stabilize it, tell it comes back down under a 12 inches or so. Then the feet go on the pegs...lol
