No leaks! and it looks super clean. ill take pictures tomorrow and post.

not a fan of the stainless outer braiding on the russel fule line. pain in the rear.. :/ looks f@#in kool tho! very rugged..

i like the hard lines. thats a way to go thats cost efficient and solid. looks clean.
What shop in Fresno did you use? I bought all the russell stuff and braided line i just havent started running the fuel lines. I would rather go with what works best and dependability over looks, but the braided line and an fittings do look nice.
