Summit sells that stuff. A local speed shop may have them too. There aren't any kits available for the fuel system. Mazdatrix and Racing Beat sell SS oil cooler lines. You may want to look at them.

I'm not sure as to what size RB uses for the oil cooler lines, but my friend used -10 AN to make his. Here's a link to the RB hoses: http://www.racingbeat.com/resultset....rtNumber=11910 .

It took me awhile to find Stainless hose for my 13B. I removed all the JUNK underneath the manifold (running a Haltech). But the hose size was 5/16" which I ordered from Summit.



I think the hose size is the same at the bank of soleniods.



The AN sizes don't crossover well.



AN-4 1/4"

AN-6 3/8"

AN-8 1/2"

AN-10 5/8"



So if you use AN-6 hose it would be 6/16" or 1/16" too big (LOOSE) you could probably tighten it with a clamp, but why risk fuel leaking all over your motor.

After you figure out what you need get the stuff from a local Speed Shop that carries the Earl's brand. If you find a shop that handles the roundy round guys thats perfect. Those guys are notorius for not having any money to spend and Earl's is a much more economical version compared to Aeroquip. Good luck.
