    I dont know what is available in Europe, but here in the states, Summitracing.com sells this stuff called twist-tite that is a substitute for Stainless Tubing. this is what they say it is for

    "High-quality hose with a great price.
    Our Summit Twist-Tite hose was designed for reduced weight, increased flexibility, and, best of all, affordability. The hose features an elastomer inner tube bonded with a reinforced textile braid, and covered in high-temperature synthetic rubber featuring the Summit logo. The hose is compatible with a wide variety of fluids and is good to 250 psi when used with our Twist-Tite fittings. The red and blue anodized fittings install without tools--they simply Twist-Tite. "

    Here is what they offer http://store.summitracing.com/egnsea...DS=1&N=700+115



    It is about half the price of normal stainless tubing, but still uses nice -AN fittings to connect components together. I wish you could just get the stuff in black tubing. I am not so hot about putting all that blue all over. I think I will end up using it here soon when I put dual 044 pumps to feed my 30r.

    There has to be a substitute on that side of the pond though.

    Great build man! You are pretty handy with the ol torch

    Slightly off topic where did you get all the fuel and catch tank hoses from?

    Top work in finally getting it up and running, sounds like those giggles justify the grief you've had?

    that's one mean sounding beast, amazing to see this project go from hot hatch to 1/4 mile mentalist motor.
