Default Fuel system hose, pushlock ?

Hi, ill keep this simple.

Im doing a dual walbro fuel system on my dsm.. -8an feed, -6an return. Street car.

Now, is 'push fit' hose fine? It says its good to 250psi, and 1000psi burst, for use on fuel/oil/coolant/air etc.. good for 300+ deg

Im guessing biggest concern would be installing it in a way so it dosen't rub, but that should be done with the braided hose anyways..

I was planning on using this stuff for my valvecover breather setup also.
It would be much cheaper than using the braided stainless hose.

Any input?

Thanks

yes it is legal.
i run it on my car. take care to place it away from exh and abrasives, and moving parts.

get good hose, like aeromotive, or comprable.

i have the jegs hose as my catch can, and it is reboxed gates hose. and i dont think it will hold up as well compared to the aeroquip/russell hoses.

Thanks, i will probably just go ahead and order it. The stuff im looking at is made by A1 Performance. Its half the price of the stainless stuff, and the fittings are half the price, ill save a few hundred on the fuel system which will be nice to spend on the bastard dsm drivetrain!
